Physiography I (Geology and Geomorphplogy) AK1104

The structure of the Earth and internal forces. The physical and chemical proprieties of minerals, the minerals of magmatic rocks, magmatic rocks, metamorphic rocks and their mineral composition. External factors. Weathering. Slope processes. The development of the slope. The minerals of sedimentary rocks, clastic, chemical rocks. Physical-chemical properties of soils. Glaciers, erosive, transport and acumulative activity. Activity of the melt-out waters. The landscape of front moraines and various typical forms for frontal melt-out of ice-sheet. The features of landscape with the relief originated in result dead ice processes. The activity of the wind and aeolian landforms. The fluvial processes, river valley and the terraces. The genetic and biological types of the lakes, the lacustrine deposits. Geology and geomorphology of Poland. Physical-chemical properties of grounds. Plant landscapes of Poland. Natural functioning of landscape. Relationships between the elements of the natural environment, processes and natural phenomena and forms of the land management. Types of the natural landscape of Poland. The source of information about the terrain - the topographical map. The systems of natural information and the usage of them. The natural conditions and project decisions.
