GEO 211 Earth History Lab

This is a laboratory to accompany Geology 210. The laboratory provides practical experience in studying sedimentary rocks to interpret depositional processes and ancient environments, constructing stratigraphic sections, examining fossils and their use in age determinations, correlating rock units, interpreting geologic history from maps, and examining the regional geology of North America. These skills, introduced in the Geo 211 lab, are required in numerous upper-level courses including Field Geology. Three hours of laboratory per week are scheduled.
