Environmental Physics Student's experiments Determine the Hydraulic Conductivity Groundwater flow can be described by Darcy's law (Environmental Science, Physical Principles and Applications, Sect 7.4). Determine the Thermal Conductivity of Sand Heat transfer by means of conductivity (Environmental Science, Physical Principles and Applications , Sect. 4.1) is caused by local temperature differences in a material. Heat transfer by Radiation and Convection Heat transfer is always caused by local temperature differences (Environmental Science, Physical Principles and Applications , Sect. 4.1). Laser Doppler Anemometry Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) is a technology to measure local velocities of very tiny particles in a flow. This technique is based on measuring scattered laser light. Radon in the Environment Radioactive Uranium can be found in soil and soil products (Environmental Science, Physical Principles and Applications, Sect. 5.2). Laser Remote Sensing Laser spectroscopy (Environmental Science, Physical Principles and Applications, Chapter 9) is a powerful method to investigate fluorescence of the photosynthetic system of green plants.
