Historical Geology A study of the origin, evolution and 4.6 billion year history of the Earth, as interpreted from the evidence in rock sequences and fossils. Astronomy: The Solar System A study of the major features of the solar system: the sun, structure and motions of the planets, comets, planetesimals, and origin and evolution of the solar system.

Physical Geography 2 A study of the natural forces, such as streams, glaciers, weathering, earthquakes and volcanism, which affect earth's crust and landforms. World Regional Geography A study of the cultural, economic, historical, political, environmental and physiographic features of Europe, North America, South America, Africa, Asian and the Pacific. Environmental Science 1 An introduction to scientific principles, population ecology, environmental interactions, and environmental policy. Environmental Science 2 An introduction to ecology, biodiversity, food and soil resources, pollution, climate change, hydrocycle, and energy resources. Meteorology An introduction to atmospheric science leading to a better understanding of day-to-day weather, including frontal systems and severe storms. Global Warming Issues in Science, Technology and Society: A course which examines the science and evidence of global warming, and its impact on society. Physical Science An introductory overview of the physical sciences from an earth science perspective, including the fundamentals of geology, geography, meteorology, astronomy, chemistry, and physics. ©2011 Richard Harwood | profharwood@icloud.com | Home Notice: Unless otherwise noted, all images and graphics contained within are the property of Richard Harwood and may only be reproduced with permission from the...
