GEOL 350 - Geomorphology

1 and 3 Credit(s)

This course focuses on the origin and development of landforms created by fluvial, glacial, and alluvial processes. In addition, we explore the relationships of landforms to underlying geologic structures and the history of geologic and climatic changes that are recorded by surface features. Landscapes and surface processes are analyzed using air photos and topographic maps, as well as field mapping techniques and geographic information systems. Must register for lecture and lab for a total of 4 credits. $100 lab fee assessed by Geology Department.

Prerequisite(s): GEOL 101 or GEOL 103 or GEOL 125.
