Description

Geological boring data including the columnar section and lithological specimens are useful material to learn the geological strata under flat or urban lands. The boring columnar section has been recently available from the geological information on WEB. As the viewpoints of utilizing in elementary and secondary school science, the boring data are effective to teach not only lateral expansion but vertical pile of the strata indicating ancient environment and history based on the low of superposition. Past fan-river plane is reminded from the boring specimens of gravel and sand deposits in the terrace plane area. Also, geohistory of submergence and reclamation through the Holocene post-glacial transgression can be studied from the columnar section and boring specimens of marine or beach sands in the alluvial plane area. These developments in the science classes are predicated on the boring data at several schools in the Sendai area and are furthermore generally applied to many schools located on plane areas in Japan.
