Summary

The course is focused on mastering basic concepts in geochemistry. It describes natural as well as anthropogenic processes taking place in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, pedosphere and in the Earth's core. In the course students learn about the interaction of individual systems and how nature affects man and man nature.
