Introduction to Geophysics part of Course Design:Goals Database
Jackie Caplan-Auerbach, Western Washington University
This course presents a broad overview of geophysical topics and techniques, including magnetism, heat flow, gravity and both active and passive source seismology. An underlying theme for the course is the ...
Subject: Geoscience:Geology:Geophysics
Model structure uncertainty with MARRMoT part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
This module is designed to introduce students to the concept of hydrologic model structure uncertainty. Students will work with the CAMELS data set and the MARRMoT model toolbox to calibrate two models for two ...
Introduction to Geophysics part of Structural Geology and Tectonics:Structure, Geophysics, and Tectonics 2012:Courses
YoungHee Kim, Seoul National University
An introduction to the geophysics of the solid earth; structure and composition of the earth; interactions between crust, mantle, and core; imaging of the interior via seismic imaging tools
Subject: Geoscience:Geology:Geophysics
Vince Cronin: Using GPS, Strain, and Earthquakes in Structural Geology at Baylor University part of GPS, Strain, and Earthquakes
Students get particularly excited when they learn that GPS deformation analyses are a recent research area that most geology majors are not even studying yet and are really tickled to learn frontier science. Learning about earthquakes from the position of research that could be helpful to societal planning, empowers them to think about geology in a much more active way: make geohazards more manageable. They were very interested to see the link between GPS measurements of strain in the crust and faults and folds that seem to be the product or physical manifestation of the strain that they computed. And where those faults pass through population centers, they came to understand the growing threat faced by the people of those communities.

Climate Teleconnections part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
This module focuses on climate variability and the influence of remote oceanic and atmospheric conditions on regional precipitation and temperature. Through this module, students will investigate the relationship ...
Remote Sensing Applications in Hydrology part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
This module offers background content on the fundamentals of remote sensing, but also integrates a set of existing online tools for visualization and analysis of satellite observations.
Aquifer Characterization: A Case Study of Snake Valley, Nevada part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
This module focuses on the analysis of well tests (i.e. pump and slug tests) to determine key aquifer properties including hydraulic conductivity, transmissivity, and storativity and their related uncertainties. In ...
Stream Solute Tracers part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
Solute tracers are used to estimate stream discharge and assess transport and transformation in streams, commonly to infer transport into temporary storage zones including in-channel dead zones and hyporheic zones. ...
Aquifer Characterization: A Case Study of Snake Valley, Nevada part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
This module introduces well tests to determine key hydraulic properties of aquifers (hydraulic conductivity, transmissivity, and storativity) and their related uncertainties.
Tracers and transit times in time-variable hydrologic systems: A gentle introduction to the StorAge Selection (SAS) approach part of SERC:External Collection:Hydrolearn
A gentle introduction to StorAge Selection (SAS) functions and their use in studying flow, storage and transport. Includes applications with the mesas.py python package.
