    1-010-AtmosphericCO2Bifurcation-TechniqueNarrative
    Students are introduced to the concept of a bifurcation in a first-order ordinary differential equation (ODE) through a modeling scenario involving atmospheric carbon dioxide whish is taken as a parameter and temperature is a function of time.

    6-075-LorenzSystemSimulation-ModelingScenario
    The Lorenz system is examined by students as a simple model of chaotic behavior or strange attractor. MATLAB code is created to find the numerical solutions of the Lorenz’ system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using various parameters.

    5-015-RunnersSynchronize-ModelingScenario
    In this modeling scenario we practice finding and classifying equilibria of a one-variable differential equation. We do this in the context of a phase model which is often a simpler way of studying oscillatory phenomena.
