Fundamentals of Structural Geology provides a new framework for the investigation of geological structures by integrating field mapping and mechanical analysis. Assuming a basic knowledge of physical ...
An analysis of crustal deformation through detailed study of geologic structures with emphasis upon the response of geologic materials to stress and strain. Field techniques, tectonic principles, and ...
The major in geology offers two options, each leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree. The Geology Option is flexible and offers in-depth training in geology and the opportunity to explore broader ...
The study of Structural Geology and Tectonics concerns the deformation of the Earth's crust and mantle. The scale of observation can be from the submicroscopic level to a mountain chain like the Rocky ...
I teach a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses that reflect my broad interests in structural geology and tectonics. These courses range from large-scale regional tectonic synthesis to ...
The Geology Department offers GEO 310 Regional Field Geology Course on either January or May every year to different locations in Virginia, California, Colorado, Texas, Bahamas, Hawaii, Oman, Norway..
My research lies at the intersection of structural geology, structural petrology, tectonic analysis, and metamorphic / igneous geology. As a quantitative, field-based geologist, I integrate a variety ...
structural geology, tectonics, and volcanology. The department's capstone course (GLG 411A -Field Geology is a 5-week field methods course. For two weeks of the course, participants travel to several ...
Structural geology is the study of the deformation of the surface and subsurface of the Earth and other planetary bodies. This deformation reflects past changes in local and regional stress and ...
