Credit Weight: 0.5 Prerequisite(s): Chemistry 1130 and either Geology 2219 or Chemistry 2111 Description: An introduction to environmental geochemistry emphasizing the interactions of chemical, physical, geological and biological factors in controlling the chemical distribution, composition and structure of aqueous systems. Students will be introduced to various topics in aqueous geochemistry such as mineral equilibria, ion exchange, redox equilibria, mass transport and the application of radiogenic and stable isotope tracers to environmental systems. Students will gain practical experience with computer software used for modeling geochemical reactions and processes. Cross-List(s): Chemistry 4011/Environmental Studies 4011 Offering: 3-0; or 3-0
