Short description: |
Interdisciplinary lecture addressed to the participants with different background: chemistry, physics, biology, human science, etc. Provides an introduction to the ocean chemistry and knowledge about Earth's frigid zones. |
Full description: |
The aim of this lecture is to present in the systematic way the knowledge about sea chemistry, current environmental issues related to the microplastic debris and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) together with specificity of polar regions (as unique area of scientific research). It consists of eight meetings, each dedicated to one subject: from general introduction, Baltic characterization, microplactic problem up to the Earth's frigid zones description and sheering of experience. |
Bibliography: |
Up-to-data literature will be given at the first meeting. |
Learning outcomes: |
-to enlarge ones knowledge about ocean science, in particular chemistry of maritime environment -to explain crucial concepts of maritime habitats protection and present main threats and (microplastic debris, persistent organic pollutants) and scientific activity in that domain -to present the characteristic and specificity of polar regions -to motivate to be up-to-data with literature and engaged in sea protection |
