Goals

The purpose is to acquire knowledge of the physics of water at the microscopic scale (molecule and molecular interactions in salt solutions, osmotic transport) and of the thermodynamics of sea water. The basic science will be applied to Ocean science.
  • Equation of State of seawater
  • Acoustics in ocean
  • Common potentials for molecular dynamic simulations in salt water.
  • Osmotic transport
  • Different types of ice
