Volcanoes, Mountains, and Earthquakes

This lab manual provides students with hands-on experience studying Geology in a lab setting. The exercises provide instructional content for working with volcanoes, mountains, and earthquakes. Several labs also focus on plate tectonics, silicate structures, igneous rocks, viscosity, volcanic hazards, accreted terranes, and geologic structures, all focused on the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The thirteen labs and two field trip modules in this manual are printed in color and have perforated pages for students to tear out and turn in.
