PHYS 101 Description: In this class students will learn about the physics of earthquakes and earthquake hazards. This course will describe faults, the structures on which most earthquakes occur, and their locations on Earth. Students will learn about the physics behind faulting and how this leads to earthquakes and controls earthquake size. In addition, students will learn to relate different faulting characteristics to earthquake hazards through an understanding of earthquake energy budget. This course requires no previous coursework in Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences. Graduate/Undergraduate Equivalency: EEPS 663→EEPS 463→unlocks 0 courses
