TRACE ELEMENT AND ISOTOPE GEOCHEMISTRY

Credit Hours: 3 · Undergraduate Upper-Level

An introduction to the principles and techniques of stable and radiogenic geochemistry in the geosciences. The course will begin by examining the fundamental physics relevant to isotope partitioning and decay, followed by a survey of different isotope systems and how they are used to study surface processes, element cycling, climate, and planetary science. Graduate/Undergraduate Equivalency: EEPS 618 . Recommended Prerequisite(s): EEPS 322 Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for EEPS 418 if student has credit for EEPS 618 /ESCI 433/ESCI 633.
