| Description | The cURL Earth and Environmental Sciences collection provides access to educational materials emphasizing the origin, evolution, and current state of the Earth. The collection is targeted toward undergraduate students and offers access to information about solid-earth geological processes, surficial processes, geochemistry, ecology, and aquatic sciences. By studying the approximately 4.5 billion-year history of our planet, including development of our atmosphere, water bodies, mountains, and natural resources, one learns more about the current functioning of the planet and possible environmental implications of human interferences with the natural system. |
