SNOWBALL EARTH. This two-credit hybrid course meets for two evenings and one Saturday. The course examines the hypothesized global glaciation that shrouded our planet in ice during the Neoproterozoic period of geologic time. When we hear ¿Ice Age,¿ we typically think of the Pleistocene Ice Age, with its mammoths and saber-toothed tigers. But an earlier episode of glaciation, dubbed Snowball Earth, may have provided for the evolution of multicellular animals and plants. The Snowball Earth glaciations were certainly the largest ever: evidence indicates that the ice reached from the Earth¿s poles to its equator! Scientists infer that the runaway freezing event was only ended due to volcano-induced global warming. This course examines the geologic, chemical, and biologic evidence for Snowball Earth, and includes a field trip to local Snowball glacial deposits. We will examine the geologic,
