GEOL 632 Rocky Mountain Stratigraphy

Credits: (3-0) 3

Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic stratigraphic sequences in the Rocky Mountain area are studied with emphasis on the paleoenvironmental and tectonic conditions under which the strata were deposited. Economic resources derived from Rocky Mountain stratigraphic units - including hydrocarbons, water, coal, and uranium - also are emphasized. Course material is augmented through student research projects and presentations on select Rocky Mountain basins and uplifts.
