The writing assignments are short papers (short, informative research papers on a geosciences topic) designed to allow you to explore (in greater depth) a topic of interest to you that we have covered in about 5 chapters in the textbook.
Instructions (please read carefully): Your paper must use 12 point, Times Roman font (or equivalent), be double spaced and utilize one inch margins (sides, bottom and top). With these formatting choices, the 3 to 4 pages paper (main body of paper, text only, not including references) should have approximately 750 to 1000 words.
In addition, provide a references section at the bottom of your paper (or on a separate page) listing your book, journal or internet (complete URL) references, and use citations in your text to note quotations or specific information that you used from your references. In order for a source to be included in your reference list, it needs to be cited in the text of your paper. Also, be sure to use metric units (used almost universally in science) in your paper.
