Chemistry of Sea and Polar Regions 1200-CHMRPOL-OG
The aim of this lecture is to present in the systematic way the knowledge about sea chemistry, current environmental issues related to the microplastic debris and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) together with specificity of polar regions (as unique area of scientific research). It consists of eight meetings, each dedicated to one subject: from general introduction, Baltic characterization, microplactic problem up to the Earth's frigid zones description and sheering of experience.
