    Description
    Students will study the highlights of geology, astronomy, oceanography, and meteorology. Students will perform laboratory experiments and modeling activities covering topics such as plate tectonics, the lives of stars, earthquakes, tides and extreme weather. Students will examine the relationship of these processes to each other and to overarching earth science concepts such as the rock and water cycles, ocean currents, weather patterns, and the solar system. A major focus is on using the scientific method to study these processes and concepts. Field trips may be required. (C-ID GEOL 120L)
