Description
This is a laboratory manual for undergraduate courses in structural geology and geophysics, designed to be used in conjunction with a structural geology textbook. The emphasis is on geological mapping, through a series of exercises directed toward analyzing the structural form and evolution of a single field area. This approach approximates to the procedures actually used by workers in the field. Tear-out sheets and punched holes enable students to hand in exercises and bind answers.
