Lecture

Field Course: Environmental Impact Assessment

Description

This lecture introduces a case study focusing on environmental impact assessment in the field, led by Pascal Mulattieri from Biol'eau. Students will analyze a river impacted by a recent overflow, identifying traces of pollution and conducting a comprehensive assessment with hydrobiologists. The practical session involves splitting into groups to visit a retention basin, discussing its importance in watershed management to mitigate environmental impacts. The instructor emphasizes the significance of working upstream during construction projects to prevent the need for additional structures. Students will learn to assess various parameters such as turbidity, waste, and clogging in the river, using simple tools to determine the level of impact on the ecosystem.
