Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The students are familiar with the basics of hydrogeology, hydrochemistry and know important water pollutants. The students know the most important environmental geochemical reaction types in terrestrial and aquatic systems and have a basic understanding of their thermodynamics and kinetics. All materials will be uploaded for e-learning in Moodle.

Assessment and permitted materials

A maximum number of 90 points can be awarded to students participating in exams and exercises.
A)three Short Exams (total of 45 points):
Short exams (45 minutes) are held during the semester, each worth 15 points. The exam dates are
1. exam: October 21 (Hofmann/vd Kammer/Darsow); 2. exam: November 6 (Krämer); 3. exam November 21 (Zumstein/Pati).
B) Exercises (total of 45 points):
3 blocks (a. Hofmann/vdKammer; b. Krämer; c. Zumstein/Pati), each 15 points. Further details will be announced via Moodle.

A maximum number of 90 points can be awarded to students participating in exams and exercises

There will be no possibility for repetition of examinations or exercises.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

A total of 90 points can be reached by successful participation of the exams and exercises. The points from all these activities are accumulated an the grade is applied to the total number of points reached during the semester. The following grading scheme will be applied:
% - Grade
> 87.5 % - 1
75-87.49 % - 2
62.5-74.99 % - 3
50-62.49 % - 4
0-49.99 % - 5
At least 50 % of the total points (i.e. 45 points) need to be accumulated to pass.

Examination topics

1. Exercise and exam (30): Einführung Hydrochemie (Hofmann & vd Kammer/Darsow)
2. Exercise and exam (30): Thermodynamic modelling, kinetics and redox processes (Krämer)
3. Exercise and exam (30): Env. organic chemistry (Zumstein and Pati)
