Introduction and acquisition of professional knowledge about the nature and dynamics of the planet Earth systems (hydrosphere, lithosphere and atmosphere) and about interactive processes between natural spheres. Mastering basic modern methods of determination and analysis of Earth spheres and their feedback with an anthropogenic factor.

Acquired theoretical and applied knowledge about functioning of the planet Earth`s dynamic system will enable mastering the basics of integral observation and management of natural dynamic planet Earth`s systems and their resources. Acquired knowledge will be applicable in the analysis and management of phenomena processes in atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere.

Fundamentals of hydrometry. This course provides an introduction to watershed hydrology, a detailed look at the hydrologic cycle, with a focus on the occurrence, movement, distribution, and storage of water. Topics covered include water budgets, precipitation, evaporation, surface runoff, groundwater flow, and connections to water quality and biogeochemistry. The focus is on developing both a qualitative understanding of hydrological processes and the ability to acquire and analyze hydrologic data.
