Course description and aims
Geochemical character of the Earth will be studied through the history of the Earth. In Hadean, chemistry of early atmosphere and ocean will be studied. In Archean, chemical evolution of lithosphere and its interaction with atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere will be studied. In Proterozoic, ocean chemistry and evolution of biosphere will be studied. In Phanerozoic, chemical evolution of the Earth and its link with climate change will be studied.
Student learning outcomes
Understanding the formation of the Earth and its evolution in terms of geochemistry. Studying basic geochemistry for understanding geological phenomena. Particularly, it is important to understand key scientific evidence for chemical evolution of Earth's environment.
Keywords
