This course is designed to introduce you the principles of chemistry related to geology and their applications to understand processes taking place on and within the Earth. The aim is to provide you with a powerful toolbox and the related skills, more than a static bank of knowledge. You will become familiar with the principles of geochemistry, including analytical chemistry, governing equations and typical applications in the Earth Systems Sciences (e.g., atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, solid earth, anthroposphere). You will learn to organize and present geochemical data, including writing a report on a problem of your choice. With this set of tools and knowledge, you will have the mind skills and technical know-hows to answer a range of practical problems, including some that may not have been addressed in the class.
