Courses
● Limnology and Global Change
An introduction to the basic concepts of the lake and swamp, the processes of the lake sedimentation, the characteristics of the lacustrine sediments, the applications of the limnology sedimentary environmental records in the global change and the present situation of the limnology research. The purpose is to enable students to understand the geological backgrounds and the natural geographical conditions of the lake and swamp formation, master conventional research methods and carry out related academic researches.
● The Cenozoic Geochronology
Establishing the timing of these geological events is a key element in geological research. The aim of this course is to describe, evaluate and exemplify the different dating techniques that are applicable within the field of geology. It is, above all, a course that lays emphasis on the practical side of Cenozoic dating, for the principal focus is on examples or case studies.
