| Lecturing |
This include the theoretical contents about all methods used in Oceanography Geology surveys, including selected aplicated examples.
The student will be evaluated about this content in a final exam. |
| Mentored work |
In groups of two or three students, the students will choose a applied scientific study on the subject for an oral presentations.
The student will show there ability to work as a team and his ability to make an oral presentation on a scientific topic. In the ensuing discussion, the capacity for synthesis and understanding of the proposed topic will be evaluated.
The activity is MANDATORY. |
| Field practice |
There will be a session onboard the B/O Mytilus along the Ria de Vigo were the student will participate in a oceanographyc survey. The objetive is to be able to familiarize themselves with the systems of acquisition of submarine acoustic data and of marine sediment samples (sediment cores, dredgers, etc.).
It is also intended that they become familiar with the organization and procedure of an oceanographic survey, for which smaller groups of work will be created to carry out the activity on board the oceanographic vessel. At the end of the activity, each group will have to produce a "cruisse report".
Some of the collected data will be worked out in practical sessions.
