  • GEOS 342: Sedimentology

    4.00 Credits
    New Jersey City University

    This course deals with the description, classification and interpretation of sedimentary rocks. Emphasis is placed on the processes affecting their composition, textures, structures, and distribution, and methods useful in inferring sedimentary processes and environments from the rock record are studied. Laboratories and field trips support a solid grounding in the description, classification, and interpretation of sedimentary rocks in their regional and global tectonic contexts.

  • GEOS 431: Petrology

    4.00 Credits
    New Jersey City University

    This course examines the composition, texture, classification and interpretation of igneous and metamorphic rocks. It covers the major processes responsible for the evolution of major volcanic, plutonic and metamorphic rock association and their relationships to regional and global tectonic patterns. Laboratories and field trips emphasize techniques used to represent and more fully understand the processes that generate rock association through time. Prerequisite GEOS 331 Mineralogy

  • GEOS 432: Structural Geology

    4.00 Credits
    New Jersey City University

    This course focuses on linear, planar and three-dimensional deformation features in rocks, including folds and faults. It details their recognition, geometrical properties, classification, and genesis. The course covers the kinematic and dynamic processes that produce such features and their relationships to local, regional and global tectonic patterns through time. Laboratories and field projects allow students to refine techniques for representing structures and for inferring the stresses and strains that generated them. Prerequisites: GEOS 112 Introduction to Geology and GEOS 241 Historical Geology, or permission of instructor Recommended: PHYS 130 College Physics I, Lecture and PHYS 1130 College Physics I, Recitation/Laboratory

  • GEOS 434: Chemical Oceanography

    4.00 Credits
    New Jersey City University

    This course presents a research (laboratory) approach to the study of seawater composition, ion exchange and equilibria, and sea-ocean bottom interface. Prerequisites: GEOS 115 Introduction to Oceanography; CHEM 105 General Chemistry I, Lecture; and CHEM 1105 General Chemistry I, Recitation/Laboratory Recommended: CHEM 106 General Chemistry II, Lecture; CHEM 1106 General Chemistry II, Recitation/Laboratory.
