External Geodynamics Course
This course equips you with practical skills in external geodynamics for managing basins and reservoirs. You'll master mapping erosion sources, tracking sediment pathways and sinks, leveraging remote sensing like DEMs and satellite imagery, climate data analysis, and developing tailored monitoring networks and mitigation strategies for sustainable water infrastructure in professional geography and geology applications.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on tools to analyse weathering, erosion, sediment transport, and reservoir sedimentation in small basins. Utilise DEMs, satellite imagery, climate data, and basic models to identify sources, pathways, and sinks; design affordable monitoring setups; and assess mitigation options for better sediment control and enduring water infrastructure.
