Book Synopsis Teaching Methodologies in Structural Geology and Tectonics by : Soumyajit Mukherjee
Download or read book Teaching Methodologies in Structural Geology and Tectonics written by Soumyajit Mukherjee and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book discusses various challenges in teaching structural geology and tectonics and how they have been overcome by eminent instructors, who employed effective and innovative means to do so. All of the chapters were written by prominent and active academics and geoscientists fully engaged in teaching Structural Geology and Tectonics. New instructors will find this book indispensible in framing their teaching strategy. Effective teaching of Structural Geology and Tectonics constitutes the backbone of geoscience education. Teaching takes place not only in classrooms, but also in labs and in the field. The content and teaching methodologies for these two fields have changed over time, shaped by the responsibilities that present-day geoscientists are expected to fulfill.

Book Synopsis North American Zooarchaeology by : Meagan Elizabeth Dennison
Download or read book North American Zooarchaeology written by Meagan Elizabeth Dennison and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2023-04-14 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This multi-author volume reflects on the history and continuity of zooarchaeology in North America and honors one of its most notable contemporary contributors, Walter E. Klippel. Klippel came to the University of Tennessee in 1977 as an assistant professor of anthropology and, over the next forty years, mentored countless students, published more than fifty journal articles and book chapters, and assembled a zooarchaeological comparative collection of national significance. Developed by friends, students, and colleagues of the professor, this wide-ranging collection of essays is organized by the prevailing themes of Klippel's career, including geological and landscape contexts, taphonomy, and the incorporation of actualistic methodologies and new technologies into zooarchaeological analyses. The diversity of topics alone suggests how extensive Klippel's research interests have been and how much contemporary zooarchaeology owes to his vision. Seeking to extend and not only celebrate that vision, the contributors also turn to explore new uses for the zooarchaeological framework in nontraditional settings. Foreword by Bonnie W. Styles and R. Bruce McMillan"--

Book Synopsis Field Trips in the Southern Rocky Mountains, USA by : Eric P. Nelson
Download or read book Field Trips in the Southern Rocky Mountains, USA written by Eric P. Nelson and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theme of the 2004 GSA Annual Meeting and Exposition, “Geoscience in a Changing World,” covers both new and traditional areas of the earth sciences. The Front Range of the Rocky Mountains and the High Plains preserve an outstanding record of geological processes from Precambrian through Quaternary times, and thus serve as excellent educational exhibits for the meeting. With energy and mineral resources, geological hazards, water issues, geoarchaeological sites, and famous dinosaur fossil sites, the Front Range and adjacent High Plains region provide ample opportunities for field trips focusing on our changing world. The chapters in this field guide all contain technical content as well as a field trip log describing field trip routes and stops. Of the 25 field trips offered at the Meeting, 14 are described in this guidebook, covering a wide variety of geoscience disciplines, with chapters on tectonics (Precambrian and Laramide), stratigraphy and paleoenvironments (e.g., early Paleozoic environments, Jurassic eolian environments, the K-T boundary, the famous Oligocene Florissant fossil beds), economic deposits (coal and molybdenum), geological hazards, and geoarchaeology.

This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geologic Field Trips in Northern Oregon and Southern Washington The geology of Oregon is as varied and fascinating as that of any state of the Union. East of Port land lies the north-south trending Cascade Range, 0 snow-capped volcanic pile. Farther east lie flood basalts, batholithic highs, and Basin and Range terrain. West of the Cascades the interaction of land, sea, and volcanism has left a challenging geologic record. In tune with geologic developments around the world, the plate tectonic model is finding increasing application to the geol09y of the State of Oregon. The imbricate thrust complex of Mesozoic rocks in southwestern Oregon has been attributed to sea-floor spreading, and recently the enigmas associated with the Colebrooke Schist have begun to yield to analysis in terms of the new tectonics. Recent work in the Tertiary units about the periphery of the Klamath Mountains may soon lead to an even more accurate appraisal of the age and nature of the later stages of plate tectonic activity in that area Closer to home, the Coast Range is largely unmapped and is ripe for reinterpretation in terms of the new tectonics. The fault blocks, basalt flows, and ignimbrites of southeastern Oregon are undergoing re-evaluation in terms of some of the subtler aspects of sea-floor spreading. Tensional shearing related to deep - seated upwelling may account for the tapping of basaltic magma at depth and for the regional development of block faulting. Similar mechanisms may account for the extensive flood basalts of the Columbia River Group to the north. Both may be part of a larger picture in which late Miocene re - orientations of plate tectonic features profoundly affected the ge0109y of much of the Pacific Basin and the world. Going back in time, the early and middle Tertiary andesites of the Cascades Range and the John Day Basin may be interpreted as volcanic material produced by differential melting of a Iithospheric plate related to an ancestral Pacific Basin rise system. Still further back in time, many of the Paleozoic exposures of northeastern Oregon may represent structural slabs of oceanic rock brought together in a subduction zone by sea-floor spreading. Viewed in this light, our failure to relate the various units stratigraphically is not only understandable, it is to be expected. With the present day stratigraphic techniques, perhaps our aim should be to understand the structural relationships of the units and to reserve final stratigraphic synthesis until later.
