Geology 16 (Mountains)

Glad to have you studying with me! I have more content in the works and I hope you'll enjoy it. For those that are interested, the best textbook out there is this one: https://amzn.to/47VNed8. However, it's a little old now (two of the authors have passed away) and if you prefer a newer textbook, I would recommend this one: https://amzn.to/45UFDcR

For other physical geology lectures:    • Introduction to Geology  

This lecture video on the origins of mountains, which is easily the longest and most involved lecture video I have ever produced, is a true capstone lecture for beginning geology students. I cover the origins of volcanoes, how most mountain belts on the continents have their origins in the oceans, the relationship of faults, folds, and joints to the rock cycle, and we look at several famous mountain belts and examine current thinking on how they formed. I hope you enjoy it!

Also, please feel free to review my earlier lecture on volcanoes:    • Geology 7 (Volcanoes)
