偏光顕微鏡を用いた岩石薄片観察は、地球科学における最も重要かつ基礎的な研究手法の一つである。この方法により、岩石・鉱物の鑑定が可能となるばかりでなく、それらの物理化学的性質や、ミクロの世界に凝縮された地球の歴史をたどることができる。本実習では、偏光顕微鏡による岩石薄片観察を中心に行い、主に以下の３点の習得を目標とする。
■ 偏光顕微鏡の原理と操作方法（偏光顕微鏡観察で必要な光学の基礎を含む）
■ 火成岩を構成する造岩鉱物の鑑定と鉱物同定
■ 火山岩・深成岩の偏光顕微鏡を用いた命名・分類法
This is practical course of petrography. Through the polarizing microscope observation, we understand the identification of rock-forming minerals and the classification of igneous rocks.

１．目的
地球環境や地球上のエネルギー・資源は、その大元をなす地球内部の環境すなわち地圏環境に依存する。
本講義では、地質学を中心として、地球物理学、地球化学の成果に基づき、現代的な視点から地圏環境の科学を学ぶ。
２．概要
地殻を構成する岩石の分類、成因、地質構造と変形、地殻の運動、資源の形成と分布、地質年代の測定方法等の原理と実例を通じて、地殻科学の基礎を主として物質科学，および環境科学的な側面から習得する。
３．達成目標等
岩石や地質構造の分類や成因を理解し、様々な地質現象を考察するための地球科学的素養を習得し，地圏環境の成り立ちを理解する。地球全体をシステムとして捉え、地球環境をグローバルかつ長期的に思考するために必要な地球科学・地質学的な視点を習得する。

1. Purpose
Geoscience is a discipline which explores universal laws governing various kinds of natural phenomena in the Earth, including geology, geochemistry and geophysics.
2. Outline
Environmental geoscience includes classification of rocks and formation mechanisms, structural geology, kinematics of the
Earth's crust, formation of natural resources, and geochronology.
3. Achievement
This course is designed to understand classification of rocks and geological structure, and to discuss on formation of geosphere environments.
Class code: 4ofrxku
持続可能な社会を維持するためには、天然資源を効率的に利用する必要がある。近年､天然資源のうちとくに鉱物資源（金属資源）の消費が急増し、それに伴い資源探査の難易度も高くなっている。資源探査には資源が形成される過程の地質学的・地球化学的モデルを理解することが不可欠である。本講義では代表的な鉱物資源について資源地質学的観点から資源の産状を学ぶとともに、成因モデルについて理解を深める。
The efficient exploitation of natural resources is essential to retain the sustainable development of our society. A rapid increase in demand of natural resources, especially metallic mineral resources, arises recently, and this causes the increase in difficulty for mineral exploration. The understanding of genetic geological and geochemical models of mineral deposits are very important for mineral exploration. In this lecture, occurrences and genetic models for several types of mineral deposits will be given.

地球史を通して、プレート収束域は大陸・島弧地殻の成長と改変を促進させ、それと同時に地殻物質を地球深部（マントル）へ供給する物質循環拠点の役割を果たしてきた。とくに原生代後期以降の造山帯に出現する藍閃石やコース石を含むような高圧～超高圧変成岩は、固体地球内部の十分な冷却に伴ってプレート収束域の平均地温勾配が十分に低下したことを示す地質学的な証拠である。この授業では変成作用と変成岩についての研究の最近のトピックスを学びながら、世界の変成帯の各説を通して、プレート収束域の地質学・岩石学・地球化学・同位体地質学・構造地質学・海洋地質学などの諸問題をセミナー形式で講義する。特に、当該分野の最近の研究動向を探りながら、何がどこまで分かっていて、何が分かっていないのかについて学ぶ。変成作用については、地球の岩石だけに限らず、地球外物質（隕石など）の変成作用も含む。
This subject/course provides a basic understanding of the formative processes of metamorphic rock and related geological processes.
本授業では日本語の評論家かつメディア研究者の著書の英語版を読解し、現代のポピュラー･カルチャーにおける大きな傾向（消費の特徴や生産者と消費者の関係や文化産業の有様等）について学ぶ。また、英語版と日本語版の比較を行い、翻訳の方法や（研究成果を纏める）一般読者向けの英文の書き方を解説する。
This course aims to help the students develop their language skills and acquire a better understanding of contemporary Japanese popular culture through comparative reading of Japanese texts and their English translations. The reading list consists of general audience and specialized publications by Japanese cultural critics and media scholars. Comparative reading will allow students to expand their vocabulary, get acquainted with common translation techniques and patterns, and get used to reading Anglophone publications. For English-speaking students, it is an opportunity to improve their skills in reading and translating Japanese texts.
