Institution:

Subject:

Description:

3 credits Investigates the major global processes that occur on Earth. These processes can be grouped into four major systems: atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere. Each system interacts with and affects the other systems creating, in a sense, a single Earth process. With this approach, the student will view the Earth as a whole, and understand that the many seemingly separate components that make up this plant are, in fact, a set of interacting processes, that operate in cycles through time, within a single global system. Three hours of lecture per week. Corequisite: GEO-102.
