WATER CYCLE, DRAINAGE, RIVER AND COASTAL DYNAMICS
MULTISCALE RECOGNITION OF DYNAMICS, FORMS AND PROCESSES IN THE WATER PROJECT
The aim of the subject is to recognize landscape dynamics, forms and processes that framwork green infrastructure in large open spaces, intermediate mosaics and the strictly urban environment, in the context of civil and environmental engineering.
Notions of surface and underground hydrology in the framework of the water cycle: free sheet, rain-runoff-propagation, groundwater flow
River engineering 1: river morphology, notions of river hydraulics and restoration of river ecosystems
River engineering 2: channeling, morphodynamic processes and accessibility
Natural water treatment in the framework of environmental engineering: elimination of pollutants, wetlands and lagoon
The project of alternative drainage systems: natural drainage, artificial drainage and stormwater management SUDS
Environmental charges and protective works in the framework of port engineering: waves and maritime climate, vertical facing dams and slopes
Longitudinal and transverse transport in the framework of coastal dynamics and coastal engineering: notions of longitudinal dynamics, beach profiles and dune system
Landscapes of territorial metabolism
Landscape engineering in the landscape planning and management project and processes
