AES 403/503 Biogeochemistry

Credits: (3-0) 3

The earth system is tightly connected through biogeochemical interactions. This course will present a multi-disciplinary array of intermediate and advanced topics in terrestrial, aquatic, and atmospheric biogeochemistry. Instantaneous to decadal time-scale interactions of carbon, water, and multiple nutrient cycles will be discussed, and a critical survey of the state-of-the-art field, modeling, and remote sensing methods for studying biogeochemical cycles will be presented.

Prerequisites: BIOL 151 , (CHEM 106 orCHEM 112 ),and (PHYS 111 or PHYS 211/211L or PHYS 207 ).
Notes: Students enrolled in AES 503 will be held to a higher standard than those enrolled in AES 403. This course is cross listed withBIOL 403/503 .
