GEOS604 — Seismology
Seismology is the study of elastic waves propagating through the Earth or other planetary bodies, and the sources that generate them. Such waves are most commonly generated by earthquakes, but may also be excited by oceanic and atmospheric phenomena (e.g., storms), and anthropogenic sources (e.g., explosions).
GEOS419 — Solid Earth Geophysics
Concepts and techniques of geophysics including origin of the Earth, its structure, and large scale dynamic processes responsible for its surface features. Geophysical techniques including seismology, gravity, and magnetic methods are discussed along with measurements of the Earth's thermal structure, rotation rates and tidal effects.
