Course description |
In this lecture, we (Prof. Takeshi Izuta and Associate Professor Makoto Watanabe) will lecture the effects of environmental stresses such as gaseous air pollutants, acid deposition, atmospheric nitrogen deposition, aerosol and global warming on plants. Slide of this lecture is available at website (http://www.tuat.ac.jp/~negitoro/). This lecture contains a class dealing with the relationship between logical expansion in graduate thesis and processes in the works at company by a stuff with business experience |
Expected Learning |
Students are required to understand the effects of environmental stresses such as gaseous air pollutants, aerosol, acid deposition and global warming on plants (crops and trees) and its mechanisms. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the curriculum maps. https://www.tuat.ac.jp/campuslife_career/campuslife/policy/ |
