Courses Taught
GEO 101: The Dynamic Earth
Study of the Earth including materials, internal and external processes, deformational events, and plate tectonics.
GEO 369: Introduction Geophysics
Introduction to the major fields of exploration geophysics such as ground penetrating radar, seismology reflection and refraction, DC resistivity, and magnetics. The course includes both principles and applications to petroleum, mining, and environmental problems.
GEO 407/507: Seismology
An overview of earthquake seismology for both upper-level and graduate Geoscience students. Topics include elastic wave propagation, seismic ray theory, travel-time interpretations, surface wave dispersion, and seismic tomography.
GEO 435/535/635: Honors and Graduate Seminar in Geology
Oral presentations on current geological topics.
GEO 542: Geodynamics
Introduction to the structure of the Earth's interior and theory of plate tectonics. Quantitative analysis of the physical processes governing the formation of major tectonic and magmatic features on the Earth.
