Module name: Dynamic hydrology
Module code: W2-GF-S2-606
Programme code: W2-S2GF19.2025
Semester: summer semester 2025/2026
Language of instruction: Polish
Form of verification: course work
ECTS credits: 2
Purpose and description of the content of education:
The described module will enable the student to acquire knowledge on water circulation processes and their mutual connections with the environment. The presented issues include processes and phenomena occurring in the sphere of groundwater and surface water. Detailed issues concern the knowledge of processes and phenomena occurring in levels, levels and hydrogeological basins in flowing (river) waters and lakes and reservoirs. In the scope of dynamic hydrogeology, groundwater flows, basic equations of hydrodynamics, threats and protection of groundwater and susceptibility to pollution will be discussed. In the scope of dynamic limnology, quantitative and qualitative transformation of physicochemical parameters of lake waters, conditions and consequences of water level fluctuations and evolution of lake basins will be presented. In the scope of dynamic potamology, knowledge will be provided on the conditions of flow variability, their genesis, duration, systematics and forecasting as well as estimation of the impact of anthropogenic pressure on the formation of river runoff.
