Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
• Knowledge and understanding in the scientific disciplines such as hydrogeology, hydrology and hydraulics in relation with land reclamation activities. Necessity and usefulness of land reclamation under the humid soil conditions in accordance with requirements of agricultural production and technological processes;
• Skills to choose the optimal methods, techniques and activities for the complex regulation of soil moisture regime and the preparation of land in accordance with the aims of land use in agriculture; • Competence to assess the solutions for soil drainage depending on the reasons of soil moisture, to evaluate conditions of the constructed drainage systems and hydro technical buildings, possible defects and necessity for repairs according to rules defined in cadastre of land reclamation. |
