Courses
● Microtectonics
This course deals with the description and interpretation of small scale structures in deformed rocks as seen in thin section through the optical microscope. The course is meant for graduate students. In this course, we will introduce the observations on the microstructure or fabric of a rock, specifically in thin section and this fabric is used to reconstruct the structural and metamorphic history of a volume of rock.
● Mathematical geology
This course is a interdisciplinary course of mathematics and geology. This course is meant for graduate students. In this course, we will introduction an application of multivariate statistical analysis to geology. The methods of multivariate statistical analysis include: regression analysis ,principal component analysis, factor analysis, numerical classification and so on.
● Seminar in advanced Mathematical geology
A graduate seminar that discusses very recent advances in mathematical geology and how to use the software of Excel to deal the geology data.
