4 Credit(s)
This course is an introduction to the interwoven geoscience fields including the relationships among the four spheres of the Earth (i.e., atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere). This course emphasizes the understanding of geoscience processes from the Earth’s core to the fringes of outer space. A major focus is the relationship between humans and the environment, including global climate and environmental change. Laboratory work includes identification and classification of minerals and rocks, climate and weather analysis, surface and groundwater simulations, and topographic and geologic map exercises. This course includes 3 hours of lecture and 2 hours of laboratory per week.
