Special themed edition
Geo Education Themed Edition
In the northern hemisphere the autumnal equinox is now long past and on cold but clear days fall colours frame an iridescent sky, brilliantly illuminated by the glare of the low-lying sun. As the days shorten people everywhere are driven to the relative shelter of their homes, places of work and study. Here at GEO ExPro we like to use these seasonal indicators to remind you of the depth and range of articles in our archive.
So, as students of all kinds dust down their trusted tomes and ready themselves for the challenges of a new academic year we have put together a series of themed articles that will help you to quickly research a variety of fundamental and essential geoscience topics. Each of the articles listed below has been carefully selected, by ‘click-rate’ and ‘reader popularity’, as being amongst the most readable and informative within the archive.
