This
is
a
history-of-geology
course
that
includes
a
great
deal
of
Earth
history
material.
The
course
describes
historical
development
of
geology
as
a
scientific
discipline
from
ancient
civilizations
to
the
modern
space
age,
the
historical
context
and
cultural
basis
of
major
geological
theories
regarding
the
origin
of
the
Earth
and
processes
that
have
influenced

This
website
is
the
homepage
of
the
St.
Olaf
interdisciplinary
course,
Global
Climate
Change.
The
course
focuses
on
how
and
why
Earth's
climate
has
changed
throughout
its
history
and
how
it
is
likely
to
change
in
the
near
future.
The
course
draws
from
geology,
chemistry,
meteorology,
oceanography,
and
policy
studies.
Much
of
the
science
involved
in
this
topic
is
cutting-edge,
so

This is the homepage for a classic invertebrate paleontology course covering fossils and evolution. Students go through major invertebrate groups, examine and interpret fossils and assemblages. Rather than approach the whole world chronologically, the course covers each lineage one-at-a-time. The site is rich in photographs and informational links.

This
beginning
geophysics
course
is
designed
for
geology
majors.
It
provides
a
relatively
rigorous
and
homework-intensive
overview
of
the
structure
and
evolution
of
the
Earth
and
terrestrial
planets,
at
a
level
higher
than
a
descriptive
geology
class,
but
lower
than
the
standard
introduction
to
geophysics
for
seniors
or
first
year
graduate
students.
