SpSt 438: Volcanism:A Planetary Process I
3.00 Credits
University of North Dakota
3 credits. Prerequisite: SpSt 200 or consent of instructor. Volcanism is a fundamental process in the evolution of planetary bodies. In this course undergraduate students are introduced to the fundamentals of planetary evolution and the role volcanism plays in this. Terrestrial volcanism in all its forms and its impacts on the Earth System are discussed. Physical models for various volcanic processes are introduced. Classic eruptions are used to illustrate the impact of volcanism. Using this knowledge as a base, we will explore silicate, cryo- and hydrocarbon volcanism in the solar system. A field trip will be arranged if sufficient interest is expressed by students. On demand.
