Section Title:
Problems in Critical Zone
Section Info:
Title: Global Engagement in Problems in the Critical Zone Description: This class offers students international experience developing analytical, computing, and cross-cultural skills to understand and solve water resource problems. Students will have a unique opportunity to engage with the USA, Brazilian and German partners to develop an international project related to soil & water resources, including ecosystem services and environmental and anthropogenic changing scenarios. The course will focus on linking fundamentals of hydrological processes with soil & water resources-related problems while fostering students to find potential solutions. Lectures will cover the critical zone, water pathways, groundwater recharge, interactions rainfall-forest, surface runoff generation, environmental modeling, interactions soils-plant-atmosphere, land-use scenarios, impacts of climate change, water footprint concepts, and remote sensing and GIS applications on water resource management. Furthermore, insights on nature-based solutions in water quality and quantity management are also planned to be presented in our Global Classroom framework.
