A general graduate course that discusses chemical reactions in the soil solution and at the soil/water interface. Fundamentals of surface charge, solution speciation, absorption, precipitation, and redox chemistry are covered. Case studies and current research projects are used to reinforce fundamental concepts and show their relevance to environmental issues. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): One of the following: an undergraduate degree in chemistry, an undergraduate course in soil chemistry, an undergraduate course in aqueous geochemistry, or permission of the instructor. Note: Students with credit for SLSC 313 will not receive credit for this course.
