About the Course

The course for a round the world regatta leads the boats through the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic, Southern Indian and South Pacific Oceans. On their voyage, the skippers come across a large variety of oceanographic situations: strong currents, floating ice, wave formations of every kind and biological diversity. In this course the student will learn about the foundations of the science of oceanography. You'll learn about the classification and formation of the ocean floor, how current sea satellite analysis systems work, the chemistry of the oceans and the processes that led to its formation. To follow this course does not require previous knowledge of oceanography....

這是一門相當有難度的課程,裡面幾乎是以地中海為例來解釋海流、水團交換等現象,導師以西班牙文教學,對於我來說只能邊看字幕邊試圖理解內容,有點吃力,題目也不算是簡單,需要思考或重複多看影片。

The course should have been fully in English.

Otherwise, it's a good one!

Debería revisar los cuestionarios. Algunas preguntas estan mal redactadas o equivocadas, e.g., la salinidad se mide a través de la coductividad. Los CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) no calientan el agua para evamporarla durante cruceros o con flotadores Argo para obtener la cantidad de sal en el agua de mar.

A bit confusing at times

The course might be good - It is however in Spanish and not in English. It has subtitles, but that is not what "being in English" means for a course.
