Learning outcomes (in Czech) Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: 1) summarize the principal types of events and outline how they develop and are manifested/recognized in the stratigraphic record 2) summarize the scale of different events and the recognition of how events shaped earth history 3) outline the utility of events in correlation and role in the relative time scale 4) summarize key events and give examples in each period of the geological time scale Tentative schedule Week 1 13 Sept (no meeting) field courses Week 2 20 Sept Introductions.
