Tectonics and Geophysics of Planetary Interiors

Catalog description

This course will examine the geophysical and geochemical nature of the Earth with respect to plate motions, paleomagnetism, seismology, and gravity, with specific focus on our planet’s internal structure and the nature of plate tectonics. These topics will be explored within the framework of tectonic processes, including the physical and chemical evolution of our planet through time.
