You will carry out data analysis with equilibrium models and applications in environmental geochemistry and learn programming of simple box models to study geochemical cycles, river runoff, and vegetation distribution. You gain basic programming skills for simple reaction-transport models for simulating water flows (groundwater, lakes, rivers) and diagenetic processes. The course is structured as lectures and a series of practical exercises. Results are discussed orally in seminars and reported with a detailed written report.

  • Course literature

    Note that the course literature can be changed up to two months before the start of the course.

    Literature material will be handed out during the course.

  • Course reports

    Course evaluations allow the possibility to affect and take responsibility for your own learning and gives important information for our work with pedagogical development.

    It's important that all students complete the course evaluations after each course, it gives the Department the opportunity to improve the courses' quality.

    The course evaluation is composed of a number of questions and specific questions for each course. If you, as a student, want to contribute with more course specific questions you may send them to studies@geo.su.se.

    If you haven't received the course evaluation for your finished course, or if you have other questions regarding course evaluations at IGV please contact studies@geo.su.se.

    Course evaluation = student's review of the course
    Course report = course leader's reflections about the review
