GPH 611 - Geophysical Geodesy (3 units)
Basic concepts and practice of geophysical geodesy, measurement and modeling of solid Earth deformations such as tectonics and earthquakes using precise methods such as GPS.
Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Fall - Odd Years
Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. demonstrate knowledge of the measurement and modeling of Earth shape and how it changes over time, and how these are used to study active geophysical processes.
2. demonstrate knowledge of applications of space geodetic technologies such as GPS for studying earthquakes, volcanos, continental deformation, plate tectonics, subsidence of natural and anthropogenic origin.
3. write software to gather, analyze and interpret data, test hypotheses and present results.
