Practical Fieldwork
There will be a two days fieldtrip with the aim to (1) study
the natural dynamic and its
interaction with anthropic activities in coastal
environments, (2) making of
geomorphological sketches and maps, and (3) discussion about
the hazards and
impacts on the coast. The fieldtrip will be previously
prepared in a laboratory session
with analysis of the information available on the geology,
geomorphology and geography
of the areas to be visited.
Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support
This course contains a set of practical activities in the field
and laboratory (computer)
dealing with case studies that are prominent, so these
activities will have a significant
weight in the evaluation.
Whereas the theoretical part will be evaluated mostly from
the results of the written
exam, the evaluation of the practical activities will be
based on different instruments as
reports, field-notes, exercises and presentations and
discussions.
