  • GLY 325: Structure-Geophysics-Tectonics I

    4.00 Credits
    University at Buffalo

    Credits: 4 Prerequisites: MTH 11 ; PHY 101 Corequisites: GLY 106 Type: LEC/LAB Introduces the fundamental concepts required to understand the scientific basis for plate tectonics, including deep Earth structure and theories of mantle convection. Describes major whole-Earth geophysical techniques (active-source seismology, earthquake seismology, gravity, magnetics, and heat flow). Uses general examples as well as specific case studies to support current tectonic theories. Practical application and hands-on use of seismic, gravity, and magnetic instrumentation take place in labs. Requires labs and one weekend field trip.

  • GLY 415: Clay Mineralogy

    4.00 Credits
    University at Buffalo

    Credits: 4 Prerequisites: GLY 305 Corequisites: None Type: LEC/LAB Clay minerals are the most abundant minerals at the surface of the earth. As such, they are of extreme importance in understanding environmental problems. In addition, clay minerals have interesting and useful properties that give them important technological value. This course examines the structure and chemistry of clay minerals and attempts to relate these to their properties, both geological and technological. Clay minerals are difficult to study because they typically occur as fine-grained materials and exhibit a wide range of defects.
