During the worldwide SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, teaching at universities changed fundamentally within a few days. This also has an impact on the traditional MRES courses, which are now offered entirely online! The interactive online seminar on MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences will be held on 20–24 September 2021 (in English language) and 4–8 October 2021 (in German language). UPDATE: The German course is cancelled and the participants take the course in English.

This is the Errata File for MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences (Springer 2020). The authors apologize for these errors, which were unintentional. The file is constantly updated on this webpage.
Today the 5th edition of MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences appeared online and the hardcover edition is available for pre-order. MATLAB® is used in a wide range of geoscientific applications, e.g. for image processing in remote sensing, for creating and processing digital elevation models, and for analyzing time series.
