    Carbon in the Oceans part of Hydrogeology:Hydrogeology, Soils, Geochemistry 2013:Activities
    Amy Townsend-Small, University of Cincinnati-Main Campus
    In this assignment, students in small groups are asked to interpret and explain a figure depicting one aspect of marine carbon biogeochemistry. Then a representative of each group explains the figure to the class.

    Relationship between mineral weathering and groundwater composition part of Geochemistry:Activities
    Nancy Hinman, The University of Montana-Missoula
    By observing changes in rocks exposed to chemical weathering, students are to infer resulting changes to the chemical composition of groundwater. Students are required to justify their inferences through the use of ...
