| Course description |
| The objective of this course is to gain advanced knowledge and concept which can be applied for the investigation and assessment of the environmental risk associated with the pollutants such as nutrients, heavy metals and pesticides in the aquatic environments and in-depth look at global flood risk under climate change. Lecture 1 -6 will be the series of lectures concerning hydrology, pollutant fate and transport, pesticide monitoring and modeling. In addition, book review of “Pesticide risk assessment in rice paddies, Theory and Practice ” will be conducted. In this section (Lecture7 to 10), review presentation will be assigned to the group of students. Lectures 11-15 provide an in-depth look at global flood risk under climate change. First, fundamental concepts and mechanisms of climate change are presented. Then we review pivotal global floods studies. In the last two lectures we use global flood models and global flood simulations to reproduce some important findings mentioned during the literature review. |
| Expected Learning |
|
The pass criterion of the this course is to gain broad knowledge and concept which can be applied for water resource management, and the investigation and assessment of the environmental risk associated with the pollutants such as pesticides in the aquatic environments such as streams, rivers and lakes and paddy fields.

This lectures will be classified as special field subjects. This course is also provided as a compulsory subject for selection of international innovated agricultural science. In addition to 15 classes of lecture time, students will learn lecture materials, international journal publications, reports issued by international organizations, and reference book relating to hydrology，water management, aquatic environment management and chemical fate and transport, and flood analysis and mitigation measure and conduct self-learning before and after the class. |
