Field Methods: Solid Earth Processes

Undergraduate

Field-based study of geologic phenomena associated with the solid Earth. The integrated use of field observations, geological and geophysical instruments, topographic maps, and satellite/UAV/aerial photography imagery is applied to interpret the structural, stratigraphic, and tectonic history of the solid Earth and gain insight into Earth’s natural resources. Because of the nature of this course, class meetings, assignments, readings, and reports are scheduled irregularly.
