自然地理与海洋学理学士（荣誉）学位

陆地通过沿海地区与海洋接壤。出于多种社会和经济原因，了解这些环境之间的相互关系非常重要，并且由于世界上大多数人口居住在沿海地区或在沿海地区受剥削，因此需要采用综合的方法来解决这一问题。自然地理和海洋学课程确保以研究为主导的教学，包括陆地（例如河流，冰川）和海洋（例如波浪，潮汐，密度流，海平面）过程。这些过程控制着水，沉积物和生物地球化学成分（例如碳）从陆地到海洋的运动。本课程还整合了这些过程，以检查环境变化，气候，海平面和污染对陆地和海洋环境的健康和可持续性的影响。此课程以前称为UCAS代码F842的海洋
About This CourseThe land borders the ocean via the coastal zone. Understanding how these environments are related to each other is important for many societal and economic reasons, and requires an integrated approach to the subject, as most of the world’s population lives near, or exploits, the coastal zone. This course will give you research-led teaching of both terrestrial (e.g. rivers, glaciers) and marine (e.g. waves, tides, density currents, sea level) processes. These processes control the movement of water, sediment and biogeochemical components (such as carbon) from the land into the sea. This course also integrates these process to examine the impacts of environmental change, climate, sea level and pollution on the health and sustainability of terrestrial and marine environments.Why choose Bangor University for this courseThis course draws on our expertise in terrestrial and marine sciences that span fluvial, glacial, coastal and deep marine environments. Local fieldwork takes place in the UNESCO designated GeoMôn geopark, Snowdonia National Park, the Menai Strait and the Irish Sea.Facilities include a research ship, supercomputers, state-of-the art survey equipment and oceanographic moorings for data collection.Our global links include the National Oceanography Centre, the Met Office, and the international offshore, hydrocarbon, and marine renewables industries.CareersOur graduates are numerate, literate, team-players, and critical and analytical thinkers, with excellent communication skills. You will be ideally placed to gain employment within the geosciences sector: waterenvironmental consultancies, geologicalearth sciences industry, coastalmarine sciences, and oceanography. This course also provides a route into postgraduate studyresearch.
