Learning Outcomes:
On completion of the module, students should be able to:
1) Plan and safely execute field data collection projects.
2) Work both independently and as part of an effective team in the field.
3) Collect high integrity field data and keep a comprehensive field notebook.
4) Make geological maps in areas of complex structure.
5) Analyse areas of complex structure.
6) Integrate field and derivative datasets.
7) Place field observations in a wider geological context.
Indicative Module Content:
Mapping is usually conduced in three field areas over one, two or three days for each area, with different geological aspects in each area. The primary deliverable from the students are a map and cross-section of each area, we well as the supporting field notebook.
