Applications and Investigations in Earth Science 7th Edition, by Edward J. Tarbuck, Frederick K. Lutgens, Dennis G Tasa and Kenneth G. Pinzke examines the basic rules and ideas of the Earth sciences. Extensively praised for its concise coverage and dynamic illustrations by Dennis Tasa, the text accommodates twenty-three step-by-step exercises that reinforce main subjects in geology, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy.
The book provides over 80 new images, redrawn illustrations, and security "Caution" boxes throughout. 23 step-by-step, self-contained exercises reinforce the main matters of geology, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy, serving to college students to get scientific literacy while creating observational reasoning and problem-solving skills.
Companion Internet site for every train permits college students to explore points associated to the matters introduced in every exercise. Intensive pedagogy in every exercise enables students to grasp the ideas presented by practicing their problem-fixing skills. Every exercise includes: a statement of objective, aims, materials needed, key phrases, an introduction, questions and issues, a evaluation, and a summary/report page that is meant to be stuffed in by students after they full the exercise.
Outstanding illustrations bring the classic features of stream erosion, landscapes, topography, and coastal features to life via color photographs, illustrations, and topographical maps. Summary/Report pages for each lab are located at the end of each lab. These removable pages help make the submission and evaluation of student work more efficient.
Exploration of non-typical studies includes “Earthquakes and the Earth's Interior”; “Ocean Basin Topography and Plate Tectonics”; “Waves, Currents, and Tides”; “Atmospheric Moisture, Pressure, and Wind”; “Middle Latitude Cyclones and Weather Maps”; “Astronomical Observations”; and “Patterns in the Solar System”. Traditional exercises provide a comprehensive overview of the discipline with coverage of measurements, minerals, rocks, latitude and longitude, topographic maps, and Earth-Sun relations.
Extensive review by a support team with backgrounds outside of Earth Science, reflecting the majority of students using this manual, prompted updates to the narrative, questions, and supporting illustrations that more effectively convey course material. The layout and design have been revised and updated significantly to increase ease of use and promote student comprehension. "Caution" boxes are highlighted throughout to detail the proper handling of materials.
