651-4049-00L | Conceptual and Quantitative Methods in Geochemistry Der erfolgreiche Abschluss des Bachelor-Kurses Geochemie (651-3400-00L) ist für diesen Kurs Voraussetzung. | W+ | 3 KP | 2G | O. Bachmann, D. Vance, G. De Souza, A. Hunt, J. Leuthold | |
Kurzbeschreibung | This course will introduce some of the main quantitative methods available for the quantitative treatment of geochemical data, as well as the main modelling tools. Emphasis will both be on conceptual understanding of these methods as well as on their practical application, using key software packages to analyse real geochemical datasets. | |||||
Lernziel | Development of a basic knowledge and understanding of the main tools available for the quantitative analysis of geochemical data. | |||||
Inhalt | The following approaches will be discussed in detail: major and trace element modelling of magmas, with application to igneous systems; methods and statistics for calculation of isochrons and model ages; reservoir dynamics and one-dimensional modelling of ocean chemistry; modelling speciation in aqueous (hydrothermal, fresh water sea water) fluids. We will discuss how these methods are applied in a range of Earth Science fields, from cosmochemistry, through mantle and crustal geochemistry, volcanology and igneous petrology, to chemical oceanography. A special emphasis will be put on dealing with geochemical problems through modeling. Where relevant, software packages will be introduced and applied to real geochemical data. | |||||
Skript | Slides of lectures will be available. | |||||

Kurzbeschreibung | Formation and evolution of the solar system from a geochemical perspective | |||||
Lernziel | To understand the formation and evolution of the solar system and its planets from a geochemical perspective | |||||
Inhalt | The Sun and solid objects in the solar system (planets, comets, asteroids, meteorites, interplanetary dust) are discussed from a geochemical perspective. What does their present-day composition tell us about the origin, formation and evolution of the solar system? The lectures introduce the basics of the terrestrial and giant planets, comets and asteroids, gained from modern space missions and the study of extraterrestrial materials. The chemical and isotopic composition of meteorites, being the most primitive material available for study, is a further major topic. | |||||
