Sedimentology and Sequence StratigraphyThis course explores sediment deposition processes, sequence stratigraphy, and stratigraphic framework to analyze past depositional environments and the geological evolution of sedimentary basins.
Running
|
Quaternary GeologyQuaternary geology studies Earth's recent history, focusing on climate changes and landscape evolution. It helps understand past environmental conditions and their impact on ecosystems.
Running
|
Environmental GeologyStudying lightning and thunderstorms aims to understand their formation, behaviour, and impact on weather patterns. This knowledge aids in predicting severe weather events and mitigating associated risks, such as damage and safety hazards.
Running
|
Principles of StratigraphyThe principles of stratigraphy aim to analyze rock layer sequences to reconstruct Earth's history and interpret past environments. It also helps in dating geological events and correlating rock units.
Running
|
Structural GeologyThis course focuses on understanding the deformation of Earth's crust and analyzing geological structures. It helps in interpreting tectonic processes, predicting resource distribution, and assessing subsurface material behavior.
