This course aims to teach participants the methods of fractal and multifractal analysis for geophysical data, focusing on the statistical property of scale invariance described by power-laws. Participants will learn analysis methods for self-similar and self-affine fractals, as well as methods applicable to multifractals. The teaching method includes demonstrations of software for analyzing power-scaling, with examples from atmospheric and climate data. The intended audience for this course includes geophysicists, researchers, and students interested in analyzing geophysical data using fractal and multifractal techniques.

It's good, but the 2nd part, I think that it would be more extended, as the first part above all thinking on first sessions which the first teacher goes slowly
