Methods in Geosciences Quantitative and statistical analyses are becoming more and more important in Earth Sciences. This course will give students a deeper understanding of fundamental geochemical systems and geochronological methods and provide the statistical and analytical tools to study them. The students will learn how to approach a given research question through fieldwork, sampling and/or

Palaeoecological methods and environmental analysis, 15 ECTS credits You might wonder what changes the environment has undergone since the last ice age until today? How has the landscape changed and how have flora and fauna responded to variations in climate and in human activity?If you attend this course, you will be able to answer such questions and not least obtain knowledge of up-to-date metho

Magmatic petrology, Geochemistry and Geochronology,15 ECTS credits Planet Earth was formed 4,560 Ma and its differentiation into crust, mantle and core occurred shortly thereafter. Continuous magmatism in various plate tectonic settings, in combination with processes related to melting and magma differentiation, has led to the wide spectra of igneous rock distinctive of Earth’s crust. We learn to

Evolution of the Biosphere, Palaeoecology and Palaeontology, 15 ECTS credits The fossil record reveals that life has changed dramatically since it originated, and that evolution is intimately associated with changes in physical conditions on our planet. Not only have the various groups of organisms evolved but also the biosphere, as a whole, has changed conspicuously since its origin over 3.500 mi

Metamorphic Petrology and Structural Geology, 15 ECTS credits Metamorphic processes have reshaped the crust since the formation of planet Earth. Metamorphism, involving essentially reactions in the solid state, takes place where rocks are subjected to temperature and pressure conditions different from those where they originally formed. New minerals form by chemical reactions, often in the presenc

Sedimentary Geology and Basin Analysis, 15 ECTS credits Sedimentary basins are erosional remnants comprising hundreds to thousands of meters thick strata and preserved in regionally widespread, natural or fault-controlled depressions in the crystalline bedrock. They are represented from all tectonic environments and contain Earth's deposits of coal, oil and gas. They are therefore of great economi

Luminescence dating is a geochronological technique that spans the Late Quaternary, and can be used in both geological and archaeological applications. It uses the natural emission of light from mineral grains (namely quartz and feldspar) to inform us about the age of events ranging from the deposition of beach sediments in storm events, change in climatic conditions, and the making of pottery and
