Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Students will gain in-depth knowledge of various analytical techniques and methods used to address a range of challenges in environmental sciences. This will include an introduction to the workings and applications of methods for isotope analysis, surface chemistry analysis, electron microscopy, and techniques for studying DNA and RNA in the environment. Students will also learn how to develop experimental systems to investigate a range of geochemical challenges.
As these types of equipment often require detailed training to operate, unfortunately, we won't be able to offer hands-on experience in this course. Instead, we will focus on the operating principles of these techniques and how they can be applied to a range of geochemical topics.
The course will be in-person but lectures will also be made available on Moodle.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

2 assessments will be held during the course:
Assessment 1: 15th December (hand-in date for group assignment)
