Taught by the legendary, charismatic, and electric Lans Taylor, this field course starts in Las Vegas. Participants will stay east of town in Henderson, Nevada and head out to field areas learning about all of the structural styles as well as regional geological context.
Lans in Action -
This course examines aspects of structural interpretation in extensional, inversion and thrust tectonic regimes, from outcrop to regional scale. The field course focuses on outcrop analogs, petroleum industry case studies, seismic exercises and scaled analogue modelling examples.
