Uses experimental and analytical laboratory techniques to develop a better understanding of the concepts of aquatic chemistry and to investigate water chemistry in treated and natural water systems. Techniques include titration, spectrophotometry, gas chromatography, other advanced instrumentation, sampling, portable analyses, and basic statistics and experimental design. Course focuses on water chemistry of Boulder Creek and other local waters. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite course of CVEN 5404 or GEOL 5280 (minimum grade C-). Requires corequisite course of CVEN 5242.
