Learning objectives
Knowledge and understanding : Stratigraphic methods and proxies for paleogeographic and paleo-environmental reconstructions. Biosphere evolution in the stratigraphic context. Global and regional geodynamic evolution.
Applying knowledge and understanding: bility to apply the skills acquired in the study of stratigraphic-environmental-geodynamic evolution on a regional scale.
Making judgements: Distinction between acquiring data and geological-stratigraphic reconstructions on a regional scale. Evaluation of the methods to be applied according to the time intervals and the sedimentation regime.
Expected learning outcomes
Communication skills: Ability to describe and illustrate the knowledge gained during the course to reconstruct geological history resulting from interactions between geosphere-biosphere-atmosphere at regional scale and in the global context.
Learning skills: Ability to base the acquired stratigraphic, geological and geodynamic processes on a scale from regional to global and at different time scales.
