"Inverse methods and data analysis"@en . . "6" . "The use of new sensors and autonomous observing systems has produced a wealth of high-quality data in all branches of environmental and space science. These data contain important information about distributions, fluxes or reaction rates of key properties in the universe. Inverting the datasets, e.g., calculating the underlying concentrations, fluxes and rate constants from the data, is an important aspect of data analysis, and a wide range of numerical methods is available for this task. This course offers an introduction to linear inverse methods. Techniques for the solution of under- and overdetermined systems of linear equations will be covered in detail. Examples of such systems are (1) linear and non-linear regression, (2) curve fitting, (3) factor analysis, (4) diagnostic tomography, (5) remote sensing from airplanes or satellites, and (6) models of atmospheric, oceanic, and space circulation and biogeochemistry. Contrary to square linear systems that are easy to solve, in general, under- and overdetermined linear systems exhibit complications: (1) the numbers of equations and unknowns differ, and (2) coefficients and right-hand-side of the equations usually are derived from measurements and thus contain errors. Basic techniques from numerical mathematics that solve these problems will be presented and explained extensively using examples from different fields. Error analysis will be of major concern. The examples cover different aspects of environmental and space research and should benefit students from the Postgraduate Environmental Physics program and newly started Masters Degree in Space Sciences and Technologies, as well as students from other fields of physics and geophysics. A basic knowledge of linear algebra is required.\n\nOutcome:\n- Techniques for the optimal solution of under- and over determined systems of linear equations\r\n- Methods for calculating variances and covariances of the solutions\r\n- Concepts of resolution (in solution as well as data) and methods to calculate them\r\n- Practical examples and applications to test data sets from remote sensing of the atmosphere, earth, outer space, and celestial bodies, as well as oceanography" . .

"The aerospace is of outstanding importance for the public image and perception of the Hanseatic city Bremen – the city of aviation and space flight. The University of Bremen with its Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) and the DLR Institute for Space Systems has become a worldwide renowned condensation point for space technology: for systems and subsystems (e.g. payloads and instruments) needed for Earth Observation Science, Telecommunication and Navigation. The novel master’s program in space engineering plays an important role in the further development of the Campus Bremen.\n\nFollowing the present expertise in the area of space engineering and technology the executive committee of the faculty of production engineering (FB4) has agreed to apply for the establishment of a master’s program in space engineering.\n\nThe foreseen master’s program in space engineering is superior to generic aerospace studies offered by other universities. While the faculty of production engineering will host the interdisciplinary master’s studies, other faculties, such as the departments of physics, electrical engineering, mathematics, and computer science, support and complement the program. As a result, graduates from a variety of different areas will be able to choose to be trained to become experts in space engineering and related aeronautical fields."@en . . . . . . . . . . .
