Biogeochemistry of Global Change

Catalog description

Biogeochemistry is the study of biological controls on the chemistry of the environment and geochemical regulation of ecological structure and function. This course will introduce the fundamental principles of biogeochemistry. Additionally, we will utilize the scientific literature from peer-reviewed journals to explore specific case studies on the global change of biogeochemistry e.g., acid precipitation, nitrogen deposition, eutrophication of the oceans, etc.from the field of biogeochemistry.
