Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
An extended understanding of soils: Matter transformations and translocation, soil genesis and classification, nature, origin and composition of substrates, possoble use of and challenges associated with substrates. Environmental issues posed by and exterted on soils and substrates.
Assessment and permitted materials
Written examination
When using AI-based tools, it must be clearly identifiable which work is being done by the students and which by the AI. The use of AI-based tools must therefore be transparent and traceable.
