By Ernest M Duebendorfer, Stephen M. Rowland, Ernest M. Duebendorfer, et al.

Book Overview

This instructive, engaging, highly readable manual is intended for the laboratory portion of an undergraduate course in structural geology. Guided by students' and instructors' suggestions, Dr Stephen Rowland and his new co-author, Dr Ernest Duebendorfer, have refined various exercises for the second edition, and have added discussions of numerous topics, including axial planar foliations and the dip isogon methods of fold classification. There are also three new chapters on: balanced cross sections; deformation mechanisms, fault kinematics and microstructures; and plate tectonics.
