Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
Most of global environmental issues have been caused by human impacts on the material cycles in the earth surface. This class aims to learn the material cycles in the earth surface with considering topographic, geologic, and hydrological processes. In addition, we examine to understand hydrological processes incuding groundwater flow, river flood, land-ocean interaction. |
| Class Schedule |
lesson1: Introductions to material transport by hydrological processes (by Onodera)
lesson2: Hydrological processes (Onodera)
lesson3: Nitrogen and phosphorus cycle (Onodera)
lesson4: Land-ocean interaction (Onodera)
lesson5: Groundwater flow and solute transport (Onodera)
lesson6: Flood discharge in a small catchment (field work) (Onodera)
lesson7: Forest catchments (field work) (Onodera)
lesson8: Various landforms formed in the watershed (landscape, erosion, transportation, sedimentation) (Hirayama)
lesson9: Relation between geology and valley landform in watersheds (Hirayama)
lesson10: Mass transfer in watersheds (Hirayama)
lesson11: Rock weathering (Hirayama)
lesson12: Origin and formation of silica - weathering (solution) of rocks - (Hirayama)
lesson13: Landform and geology around the Kurose River 1 (field works) (Hirayama)
lesson14: Landform and geology around the Kurose River 2 (field works) (Hirayama)
lesson15: Conclusions (Onodera, Hirayama)
