Liam Murphy 3540040 GEOL 200 - Introductory to Physical Geology Lab Assignment #5 August 3, 2021 Part One » i 1. A copy of Figure 9.19 from page 187 of fhe Laboratory Manual in Physical Geology (8th ed.) by Busch, Richard M. (ed.) and Tasa Dennis (ill.) (Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall, 2009) is provided below. Mark each contour with its proper elevation, using a contour interval of 40 metres.

2. A copy of a part of Figure 9.13B from page 159 of Laboratory Manual in Physical Geology (6th ed.), by Richard M. Busch (Upper Saddie River, NJ: Prentice-Hall, 2003) is provided below. Construct and label contour lines, using a contour interval of 10 metres. Draw contours for lines having elevations in even tens of metres; for example, 90 metres, 160 metres, etc. Note: When you must draw contour lines between points of different elevation, you must interpolate between the elevations provided. For example, a 100 metre contour line would pass closer to a point with an elevation of 98 metres than to an adjacent point with an elevation of 117 metres.

Refer to the topographic map (Banff 1:50,000 Map Sheet 82-0/4) provided in your course package, and answer the following questions. Note: Latitude and longitude coordinates must be provided with direction indicators: in the case of latitude, with either a north (N) or a south (S) indicator, depending on whether the coordinate is north or south of the equator; in the case of longitude, with either an east (E) or a west (W) indicator, depending on whether the coordinate is east or west of the prime meridian. . a.
