Geology - Page 2

Geology is the scientific study of the Earth, including its structure, composition, processes, and history. It encompasses the examination of rocks, minerals, and the various physical and chemical processes that shape the Earth's surface and interior. Geology explores the formation and alteration of landforms, the dynamics of earthquakes and volcanoes, and the evolution of ecosystems over geological time. It also includes the study of Earth's materials, such as fossil fuels and minerals, and the impact of human activity on geological processes. Geologists analyze data from field studies, laboratory experiments, and geophysical surveys to understand Earth's past and predict future geological changes. Overall, geology plays a critical role in understanding natural resources, environmental issues, and the Earth's complex systems.
