Biogeochemistry

Education facts

Code: GG8115

The course deals with the geological, microbiological, chemical, and physical processes that link Earth’s systems. We will study the redox chemistry of biologically active elements at the microbial scale and the evolution of microbial processes through geologic time. Models (box models and reaction-transport models), stable and radioactive isotopes are applied as tools for studying the interactions between biogeochemical cycles.

Entry requirements

Access to the course requires knowledge equivalent to a bachelor's degree, which includes at least 90 credits in geology or geoscience, of which at least 30 credits are courses in geochemistry (GG5011/GG5111). English B or equivalent.

Education offerings

Each offering has its own dates and conditions. Closed offerings are retained as history and do not mean that a new application is open.
