SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"From a geologist's perspective, "solid" rock shows a lot of dynamic behavior: It constantly moves, deforms and breaks up in response to natural forces. Structural geology focuses on understanding the processes by which geological materials shift and deform. To do so, structural geologists study rocks in the field as well as in the laboratory, making use of microstructural observations to characterize deformed rocks. Structural Geology is an advanced undergraduate course for geologists that is taught at all major geology schools"--
