Prerequisite: GEOL 1121 or 1122. Study of hydrologic processes, water balance, and water quality. Emphasis placed on landscape management of water resources to maintain productivity and environmental quality. This course has a laboratory fee. This course is repeatable for credit.

Prerequisite: GEOL 1121 or 1122. Study of earth surface processes and landforms, including tectonic, weathering, soil, hillslope, karst, fluvial, glacial, periglacial, eolian, and coastal geomorphic systems. Implications for environmental change are stressed. This course has a laboratory fee. This course is repeatable for credit.

Prerequisite: GEOL 1121 or 1122. Sedimentary processes in major siliciclastic and carbonate depositional environments, including factors affecting deposition and erosion over large time scales. Principles of stratigraphy including sedimentary structures, facies models, and biostratigraphy. This course has a laboratory fee. This course is repeatable for credit.

Consideration of topics in which courses are not offered otherwise, but for which there is current need. Subject matter varies. This course has a laboratory fee. This course is repeatable for credit.
