Download or read book Environmental Geology Today written by Robert L McConnell and published by Jones & Bartlett Learning. This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for the undergraduate, introductory environmental geology course for majors and non-majors alike, Environmental Geology Today presents the core geological principles and explores the effects of humanity on the physical environment. Contemporary case studies throughout encourage students to use their critical thinking skills to dissect the subject matter as part of their overall analysis. The numerous case studies are drawn from topical current events that relate to the chapter material and contain numerical data. Using simple math, graphing, and critical thinking, the authors challenge students to analyze aspects of the data, honing their basic math and analytical skills. With a focus on teaching students to think critically about our environment, Environmental Geology Today is a fresh and modern exploration of this ever-evolving field.

Download or read book Environmental Geology Today written by Robert L. McConnell and published by Jones & Bartlett Publishers. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Environmental geology is the study of the intersection of geological principles and the effects of humans on our physical environment. Examples of topics covered in an environmental geology course include, earthquakes, population growth, floods and other coastal hazards, land use and natural resources. Environmental geology today is designed as a stand-alone text for use in introductory environmental geology courses. Students will be taught how to use the standards of critical thinking and the principles of informal logic to dissect the subject matter as part of their overall analysis. Critical thinking case studies will contain relevant material, in some cases with numerical data. Students will analyze aspects of the data using simple math, graphing and critical thinking. Key terms and concepts will be highlighted and explained more fully in the following section or the margin. The authors will feature global, national and regional issues, but will also show students how to retrieve and use information to address critical local issues like population growth and development, air and water pollution, land use and waste disposal. Case studies will be drawn from current events that students will be familiar with and thus interested in these examples, as opposed to the more classic case studies that appear in the competing environmental geology texts. Math will be introduced in a non-threatening, step-by-step manner. This will allow students to catch their own errors early in the process, thereby gradually building confidence in their own mathematical abilities. This will make non-science or early-science students more comfortable with using mathematical formulas that are pivotal to understanding environmental issues"--Provided by publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Records lessons learnt from miltary experience in World War I and II. It also contains perspectives from America which show how, in warfare, military geologists irrespective of nationality have pursued tactical and strategic terrain analysis, fortifications and tunnelling, and resource acquisition, defence installations, and field constructions and logistics. It shows how in peace-time military geologists train for wartime operations and may be involved in peace-keeping and nation-building deployments.
