DESCRIPTION:
Drawings serve for quick and simple documentation in the field or at the microscope. The chapters provide examples of how drawings evolve and are complemented by exercises, allowing the reader to practice their drawing prior to going out into the field or working at the microscope. Beginning with the basics, the book covers thin sections, sample sections, samples and geological stereograms. Moreover, geological drawing improves observational ability and contributes to the understanding of geological structures and structure-forming processes. Despite the modern dominance of computer graphics programs and digital cameras, the ability todraw geological structures manually remains a necessity in academic geology and beyond. Users of this unique guide will develop their knowledge and technical vocabulary whilst also improving their drawing skills.. Geological drawing is assisted scientific thinking.Drawing Geological Structures provides undergraduate as well as graduate and practicing geologists with a thorough, step-by-step practical guide to the art of geological drawing. They can be applied as a language of their own as well as be adapted to suit specific requirements
