Question #7: Find out what kind of climate you have in northern
Zambia and explain, how this affects the mobility and spreading
of this type of heavy metal pollution.
Question #8: We have earlier talked about suspended matter in a
water body, such as a lake or a river. Explain, what happens to the
settling speed of a clay particle in the water column with respect
to a) the diagram of this slide and b) the grain-size and shape of
such a particle.
Question # 9: Well, you just heard about what could happen to a
liquid CO, reservoir buried in the upper oceanic crust. Now I want
you to investigate nature in a similar case. For that, you need to a
little research the "Nyos crater lake" in the Northwest of
Cameroon. Write a little abstract on what you find for this place
and how it could relate to what I said.
Question #10: Please listen first to what you can hear on the
provided video links and then write a short abstract about them.
From what you heard, do you think that a Short-term Stabilisation
of the Climate is Achievable?
Question #11: Are there Long-term Solutions to AMD
Remediation? What needs to happen before you can be satisfied
about the remediation?
Question #12: Find 3 typical organic complexing agents in the
environment and describe in which environments (in the widest
sense) they are found and which elements are particularly taken
up.
