"Applications in soil and water chemistry"@en . . "6" . "Contents:\nVarious aspects of chemical interactions of compounds in the soil-water environment (nutrients, contaminants) and their applications are part of this course. Most relevant process studied is speciation (especially adsorption and complexation). Applications focus on practical calculation and measurement procedures (what should be measured).\nLectures: fundamental aspects and practical applicability of speciation processes in soil, groundwater and surface water; applications to soil remediation, soil fertility, water quality, risk assessment, etc.\nPC practical: structural approach in solving chemical equilibria (speciation calculations) using a computer model.\nLab practical: determination of adsorption behaviour of heavy metals to solid and suspended particles (clay, oxides, organic matter); chemical analysis (AAS, TOC, pH); parameter fitting (multiple linear regression).\nTutorials: assignments related to lecture topics; simulation of adsorption behaviour using a speciation model .\nLearning outcomes:\nAfter successful completion of this course students are expected to be able to:\nconduct laboratory experiments to determine adsorption isotherms, analyse important chemical soil and water characteristics and interpret experimental results;\nanalyse speciation problems in soil-water systems and perform speciation calculations with a computer speciation model;\ndescribe and predict compound behaviour in soil and surface water;\nindicate applicability of speciation in soil and water chemistry." . .

"The Environmental Sciences master's programme in Wageningen has its roots in the natural, technological and social sciences. Students will gain insight into the socio-economic causes and the characteristics of pollution and degradation of the natural environment, including the effects on human beings, the atmosphere, ecosystems and other organisms. This two-year programme is based on an interdisciplinary approach. Students learn to develop analytical tools and models, as well as technologies, socio-political arrangements and economic instruments to prevent and control the wicked environmental and sustainability issues like climate change, biodiversity loss and resource depletion."@en . .
