Practice 1. Identification of urban green infrastructure
Identification of the urban and peri-urban spaces that make up the various elements of the urban green infrastructure. The concepts will be explained in the classroom and the student will make a report at home of identification of the IV elements and a diagnosis and proposal for improvement on the area of selected job. The job is individual.
Practice 2. Study and environmental assessment of urban afforestation as green infrastructure using Geographic Information Systems (QGIS)
Quantify the degree of compliance with international rules or Spanish regulations through the inventory of proposed garden areas, as well as an assessment/quantification of ecosystem services. In a first session in the computer classroom, the basic concepts and the tools to use in practice. The computer science classroom session is individual, but subsequently, the student must do a group work (maximum 5 people) on a area of work proposed by the professor and must submit a proposal to be defined in the statement of the practice that will be delivered in time and form
Practice 3. Identification of wildlife species of concern for biodiversity conservation (Biodiversity islands)
Individual work consisting in the preparation of a descriptive sheet from the recognition of wild species present in the urban spaces of the city, indicating those parameters and their degree of ecological/landscape interest of wild species through technological tools
Practice 4. Technical visit to works carried out in execution of Green Infrastructure
Departure by bus for practical recognition activity and knowledge of experiences innovative in urban and peri-urban areas
Practice 5. Study and proposal of nature-based solutions.
Preparation of a technical report, including necessary calculations, for the installation and maintenance of a Nature-Based Solution (to be chosen between vertical garden, covered ecological, rain garden, etc.)
Promoting the continuous improvement of working and study conditions of the entire university community is one the basic principles and goals of the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. Such commitment to prevention and the responsibilities arising from it concern all realms of the university: governing bodies, management team, teaching and research staff, administrative and service staff and students. The UPCT Service of Occupational Hazards (Servicio de Prevención de Riesgos Laborales de la UPCT) has published a "Risk Prevention Manual for new students" (Manual de acogida al estudiante en materia de prevención de riesgos), which may be downloaded from the e-learning platform ("Aula Virtual") under the "Act in an Emergency" section, "Technical Guides" tab, with instructions and recommendations on how to act properly, from the point of view of prevention (safety, ergonomics, etc.), when developing any type of activity at the University. You will also find, in the "Act in an Emergency", sectionrecommendations on how to proceed in an emergency or if an incident occurs. Particularly when carrying out training practices in laboratories, workshops or field work, you must follow all your teacher's instructions, because he/she is the person responsible for your safety and health during practice performance. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and do not put your safety or that of your classmates at risk.
