This document outlines the class schedule for an Advanced Soil and Water Engineering course. The schedule includes 15 classes covering various topics related to physical characteristics of soil, micrometeorology, soil water and evapotranspiration, and soil and water engineering applications. Today's class will focus on micrometeorology, covering the first two topics on surface energy balance and presenting four case studies examining surface energy balance in different environments like deserts, cities, and greenhouses.
