Prereq: MA 113, 114; PHY 211, 213 or PHY 231, 232 or consent of instructor. MA 114, PHY 213 or PHY 232 may be taken concurrently.
An introduction to the principles and applications of geophysics in the field. The course will present the geophysical methods used to assess the configuration and physical properties of the Earth's subsurface, as well as to explore for natural resources. Designed for geology students science or engineering students without prior formal instruction in geophysics. To understand the discussions and exercises, the student should be familiar with first-year calculus and physics.
