ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 1.00 Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.
Language: Polish
Type of course:

obligatory courses

Prerequisites (description):

Students should have basic knowledge related to:

- classification of rocks because of their genesis and lithological composition;

- knowledge of chemistry and mineralogy of rocks;

- groundwaters, properties of hydrogeological medium


The knowledge on these subjects a student can earn during the following obligatory subjects conducted at UW:

- Dynamic Geology (lecture and exercises)

- Hydrogeology (lecture and exercises)

- Geochemistry (lecture)

- Mineralogy (lecture and exercises)

Short description:

Water origin on Earth. Hydrological circulation and chemistry of natural waters. Fundamentals of water chemistry and hydrochemistry. Physicochemical characteristic and chemical composition of waters. Main processes forming the chemistry of natural waters. General characteristic of anthropic and geogenic pollutions. Basic methods for studying the chemistry of natural waters. Evaluation of the quality of hydrochemical data.

Full description:

The lecture is designed to acquaint a student with:

- physicochemical characteristics and components present in natural waters;

- forms (speciations) of water components;

- basic information about natural waters chemistry in particular hydrosphere reservoirs;

- main processes responsible for creating the chemical composition of natural waters;

- main types of geogenic and anthropic water pollutions.

Learning outcomes:

After completing the lectures a student:

- knows the basic information related to physicochemical characteristic and chemical composition of natural waters in different reservoirs

- knows the main processes responsible for creating the chemical composition of natural waters

- knows the main origin of natural waters pollution.

Assessment methods and assessment criteria:

Written examination covering the range of issues from lectures and exercises.

Requirements on the exam:

- knowledge of the material presented in the lectures,

- knowledge of the literature indicated by the lecturer,

- the knowledge gained from the exercises.

The lecture ended with a written exam (to take the exam, the student must have a positive assessment of the exercise).

The subject is credited after obtaining more than 50% of the sum of points possible to obtain from the written exam.

In case of failure to pass the lecture on the 1st date, second date of the written examination is conducted.
