Type of delivery of the course
Frontal lessons with the use of slides that are contextually distributed to students. Three geophysics experiments are described in detail that students must conduct on their own. For each experiment, students are asked to: organize the experiment, acquire the data, analyze the data through the use of dedicated software (Matlab), interpret the results. For each experiment a detailed laboratory report is required which will be evaluated for the final verification.Attendance
Laboratory sessionsType of evaluation
Evaluation of laboratory eports. Oral discussion
