This course is aimed as general introduction into magnetic minerals as carriers of record of environmental changes. Magnetic record in geomaterials (environmental magnetism) reflects changes in geological histor of the Earthy (paleomagnetism), past climatic changes (magnetic paleoclimatology) as well as environmental impact of recent and present human activities, such as industrial pollution. Students will get basic knowledge on identification and characterization of magnetic minerals using magnetic methods and on the interpretation of this knowldge in terms of environmental applications.
