EOS321 - Earth History

Description

The history of the Earth-ocean-atmosphere system is recorded in the igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rock record. This course investigates how the geological record is used to unravel the co-evolution of the solid Earth (e.g., tectonics and volcanism) and the ocean, atmosphere and biosphere. The course focusses on the Phanerozoic Eon, as its geological record is most abundant and best understood.
