Overview

Date/time interval

Secondo Semestre (23/02/2026 - 29/05/2026)

Syllabus

Course Objectives

Mastery of geophysical and remote sensing techniques for the modeling and assessment of geomorphological processes. Based on possible work scenarios, the student will be able to choose which techniques to adopt for the geophysical-geomorphological survey and evaluation required by the client

Course Prerequisites

Knowledge of physical geography, geomorphology and physics.

Teaching Methods

Lectures (36 hours) and a 3-day field activity (24 hours). The lectures are divided into two 18-hour parts: the first covers mapping, risk, remote sensing, and thermography; the second focuses on geophysical techniques

Assessment Methods

Oral exam in thirtieths.

Contents

1) Geomorphological mapping and risk assessment 2) Remote sensing applications for geomorphology 3) Thermography 4) Geophysics: electrical methods, electromagnetic methods, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), seismic methods
