Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Knowledge of the structure, functioning of processes and relationships in the lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere of the Earth, familiarity with the geological structure and geological processes of the Earth, with the basics of mineralogy and petrography, land hydrology and meteorology and climatology. 2. Mastery of the methods of searching, analyzing, evaluating factual material and professional literature and other sources of information on natural phenomena of a geological and geomorphological nature and available geoinformation programs.
Course content
The content of the discipline consistently reveals the main features of the status of geomorphology and a methodologically sound chain of knowledge about one of the most important Earth sciences, namely: the main methodological provisions and stages of the formation of geomorphology, general regularities of the formation of the relief of the Earth's surface, a characteristic of the main factors of relief formation, such as endogenous (the structure of the Earth's crust, the activity of its tectonic movements, the features of the geological structure of the upper part of the lithosphere, the properties of rocks in relation to their relief-forming role, varieties of the relief-forming influence of magmatism), which determine the diversity of the morphostructure of the Earth's surface, and exogenous (direct and indirect influence of solar heat, various types of its influence on the hydrosphere and atmosphere, reflected by the complex mechanisms of the work of exogenous geomorphological processes and the formation of the corresponding morphosculpture). The discipline contains educational provisions on methods of field and office geomorphological research, as well as substantiation of the structure of scientific and diverse applied areas of geomorphology. The academic discipline "Geomorphology" is one of the components of the comprehensive training of the educational and professional program "Geoecology and Ecosystem Services" of the specialty 103 Earth Sciences.
