Geomorphology

GEOG 232 Geomorphology. Our planet is undergoing a period of accelerated change. As such, GEOG 232 is a timely lab science course in which students will learn about the dynamic processes that shape the Earth’s surface. We will explore the geomorphic forces that are at play in various environments such as alpine and continental glaciers, permafrost areas, river systems, deserts, and coastal regions, and discover the resultant landforms. We will also examine anthropogenic effects on different landscapes and how climate change is altering the face of the Earth.
