Geology 4L: Final Paper
Goal: To understand the spheres that make up the Earth system and the processes through which they interact.
Using what you have learned this semester in Geology 4L, choose an event or process about which you are interested in learning more (e.g. Mount Saint Helen eruption, supervolcano eruptions, wildfires, increasing CO2 levels in the atmosphere, the formation of diamonds, Hurricane Maria, a large meteor impact). Make sure to pick a topic that that is large enough to affect at least four of Earths spheres that we discussed this semester (i.e. atmosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, cosmosphere).
Your paper should: 1) focus on how your chosen event or process affects each sphere and 2) include as many connections as possible to what you have learned in the Geology 4L labs. 3) Include information on how this event affects/is affected by human activity. Use the diagram below to help you think about the types of interactions that could occur.
I encourage you to think creatively and to incorporate the expertise of your major and what you have learned in other classes into your project if it fits into the scope of the project.
