Objectives: The themes are structured so as to offer an introductory base to the different matters that are taught in the option on the environment in fourth and fifth year. The physical foundations are introduced for the study of processes such as the exchange of mass and energy in heterogeneous and open systems, where the existence of permanent gradients is the |
