GE 203: Environmental Systems: Water Resources
2.00 Credits
Boston College
Life on Earth depends on the presence of liquid water. For humans, fresh water is a vital resource. This course explores the science of hydrology including: the water cycle, surface and ground water flow, water use by humans, and threats to water supply. This course is part of the Environmental Systems introductory sequence (GE201-208) for Environmental Geoscience majors.

GE 204: Environmental Systems: The Critical Zone
2.00 Credits
Boston College
The Earth's Critical Zone is the "heterogeneous, near surface environment in which complex interactions involving rock, soil, water, air, and living organisms regulate the natural habitat and determine the availability of life-sustaining resources." This course focuses the geochemical processes that influence water quality in the near surface. This course is part of the Environmental Systems introductory sequence (GE201-208) for Environmental Geoscience Majors.

GE 206: Environmental Systems: Oceans
2.00 Credits
Boston College
The oceans cover 70% of the earth's surface and are home to much of its life. The oceans are critical to the earth's biogeochemical cycling of energy and mass. Ocean currents play a key role in climate through redistribution and exchange of heat with the atmosphere and storage of CO2. Coastal areas, the narrow interface between land and ocean, represent some of the most productive, populated and vulnerable regions on earth. The course provides an introduction to the ocean's role in earth processes and explores the topics and challenges facing a changing planet through case studies, critical thinking and analytical.

GE 207: Environmental Systems: Earthquakes and Hazards
2.00 Credits
Boston College
Earthquakes are among the most frightening and devastating of natural hazards, often resulting in catastrophic loss of life and property. Earthquakes are also among the most fascinating of natural phenomena. Although the basic global scale characteristics of earthquakes are well understood in the context of the theory of plate tectonics, considered in detail earthquakes are among the most complex and unpredictable of earth processes. This course is part of the Environmental Systems introductory sequence (GE201-208) for Environmental Geoscience majors.

GE 208: Environmental Systems: Quantitative Methods
2.00 Credits
Boston College
This course focuses on some mathematical topics that are commonly used in analyses of environmental systems. The primary emphasis in the course will be on statistical methods, especially understanding statistical sampling and the determination of the mean, standard deviation and confidence intervals of a population. Some commonly used probability distributions including the normal and Poisson distributions will be discussed. Other topics such as line fitting, non-linear models and feedback systems will be introduced. The course is part of the Environmental Systems introductory sequence (GE 201-208) for Environmental Geoscience majors.
