Geology 210f: Plate Tectonics
3.00 Credits
Mount Holyoke College
(Speaking- and writing-intensive course) Plate tectonic theory explains the origins of volcanoes and earthquakes and the locations of mountain belts and oceans. This course focuses on the geometry of plate tectonics. Topics include continental dri?, relative plate motion, earthquake analysis, the creation and destruction of ocean crust, marine magnetic anomalies, triple point junctions, and stereographic projection. Work includes individual research projects on active plate boundaries. Meets Science and Math II-C requirement M. Markley Prereq. Comfort with geometry and trigonometry; 4 credits

Geology 227s: Groundwater
4.00 Credits
Mount Holyoke College
The demand for and the contamination of groundwater resources are major societal concerns. To better understand the dynamics of the groundwater system, we cover topics including the hydrologic cycle, surface and subsurface hydrology, groundwater resource evaluation, and groundwater geotechnical problems. Students prepare weekly problem sets, a term paper, and an oral presentation. Many of the homework problems involve computer applications. Meets Science and Math II-B requirement A.Werner Prereq. Any 100-level geology course; 4 credits
