Full Description
This exam centers on the principles of isotope geochemistry and its applications in environmental studies. It covers the geochemical behaviors of various isotopes and their significance in tracing geological processes.
Isotope analysis is critical for understanding processes such as climate change, paleoclimatology, and the migration of pollutants. Knowledge of isotopic variations contributes to effective environmental monitoring and impact assessment.
The exam will assess the studentβs capacity to explain isotopic fractionation processes, articulate the principles of radiometric dating, and assess the role of isotopes in environmental context.
Candidates should prepare by reviewing case studies that demonstrate the integration of isotope geochemistry in solving environmental issues.
