What will I learn?
Explore external geodynamics through hands-on tools for analyzing weathering, erosion, sediment transport, and reservoir sedimentation in small basins. Master the use of DEMs, satellite imagery, climate data, and simple models to map sources, pathways, and sinks. Learn to design affordable monitoring networks and evaluate mitigation strategies that enhance sediment management and promote sustainable water infrastructure development.
