| 651-4004-00L | The Global Carbon Cycle - Reduced | 3 KP | 2G | T. I. Eglinton, L. Bröder, J. Hemingway | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The carbon cycle connects different reservoirs of C, including life on Earth, atmospheric CO2, and economically important geological reserves of C. Much of this C is in reduced (organic) form, and is composed of complex chemical structures that reflect diverse biological activity, processes and transformations. | ||||
| Lernziel | A wealth of information is held within the complex organic molecules, both in the context of the contemporary carbon cycle and its links to is other biogeochemical cycles, as well as in relation to Earth's history, the evolution of life and climate on this planet. In this course we will learn about the role of reduced forms of carbon in the global cycle, how these forms of carbon are produced, move around the planet, and become sequestered in the geological record, and how they can be used to infer biological activity and conditions on this planet in the geologic past. The course encompasses a range of spatial and temporal scales, from molecular to global, and from the contemporary environment to earliest life. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | This course is good preparation for the combined Field-Lab Course: "651-4044-02 P Geomicrobiology and Biogeochemistry Field Course" and "651-4044-01 P Geomicrobiology and Biogeochemistry Lab Practical" | ||||
| 651-4910-00L | A Geology-Biology-Chemistry Graduate Collective within D-ERDW | 2 KP | 3S | C. Welte, T. I. Eglinton, J. Hemingway, C. Magnabosco | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The goal of the Collective is to give PhD students the tools and resources that they need to successfully complete their projects and to develop as scientists. The collective will promote close interaction between students, faculty and (external) speakers in a series of workshops and seminars on topics including scientific writing, effective communication and good scientific practice. | ||||
| Lernziel | Students will gain tools and strategies needed to work as scientists as a basis to successfully complete their PhD projects. They will specifically be able to • scientific writing: efficiently manage the writing of scientific texts, be able to structure each section effectively and produce fluent and reader-focused sentences and paragraphs • effective communication: use language in a way that helps them achieve their goals • good scientific practice: discussion of scientific ethics and topics of good scientific practice relevant to earth scientists. Students will have an overview of organizational units available at ETH for different concerns and build up a network with co-students. | ||||
| Inhalt | Scientific writing: Participants produce a number of short texts as homework assignments and receive detailed individual feedback on these during the course. Content and materials deal specifically with the demands of writing in geological research fields. Wherever feasible, elements of participants’ future research articles are developed as assignments within the course. Language of Change: in short sequences of inputs and workshops students will discover basic elements of effective communication and receive concrete tools for its application in their everyday life. In study-buddy groups they can consolidate they knowledge and skills. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Students need to be member of one of the following groups: Biogeoscience, Geobiology, Climate Geology, Surface Earth Evolution, Earth Surface Geochemistry | ||||
