Skrócony opis:

The course deals with reclamation concept and treatments on post-mining sites and addresses especially the issue of forest reclamation. The course includes landscape development and management background; ecology of post-mining sites, especially succession of forest ecosystem, plant and soil development; criterions of reclamation process assessment. Some issues of ecological engineering on post-industrial areas are included, as well.

Efekty uczenia się:

Student has a knowledge about basic elements of restored ecosystem, technology of reclamation, risk assessment, and monitoring of developed ecosystem on disturbed sites exemplified on different mine sites in Poland and in the World.

Student can actively discuss in the group about studied issues and developed the impact of certain mine, industrial and reclamation activity on the environment in regional and global scale
