1.What roles do plate tectonics play in the geomorphology of Pacific Islands? The earth’s crust is made out of plate tectonics. Each plate has a defined boundary and direction it moves. The plates in Earth’s crust perform two actions; they submerge under each other or they spread out. The Pacific Plate is the largest plate […]

There are several reasons that influence volcanic hazards, these include the viscosity of the magma, proximity to population centres, materials that are ejected from the volcano, the magnitude of the eruption and the plate margin that the volcano rests upon. The viscosity of the magma depends on 3 things, the temperature, dissolved gasses and the […]

The movie talks about the eruption of northern cascades mountain which took place in America. Set in the fictional town of Dante’s Peak, Washington, located in the northern Cascade Mountains, the film is somewhat based on the real-life eruptions of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, Mount St. Helens in 1980 and Mount Pinatubo in 1991, […]

Santorini, Greece Santorini is located in the Aegean Sea and is Greece’s largest volcanic Cyclades Island. Essentially the remnants of a massive volcanic eruption and outbreak of earthquakes, Santorini is the world’s only inhabited caldera. Since then, now crescent shaped, Santorini has been a major contender in the tourism industry by drawing hundreds of new […]

Associate Level Material Comparison Worksheet Use the table below to compare extrusive and intrusive rocks. Describe and compare each type in at least 150 words. Extrusive Rock Extrusive rocks, also known as volcanic rocks, are formed when magma reaches the earth’s surface and cools into lava. These rocks are created through volcanic eruptions where lava […]

Scientific disciplines such as civil engineering and environmental sciences, for Instance, rely on a deeper understanding and appreciation for earth’s landforms and processes. Generally, any environmentally-related field requires a background on geological studies. Since civil engineers are ideally responsible for the built environment, an understanding of the ground upon which various infrastructures and facilities are […]

The Teleological Argument also known as the Design argument is used to show proof of existence of God by observing the purposive of nature. This argument concludes that there must be a designer. The teleological arguments for existence of God, is that it is reflected in the intelligent purpose of the world from natural experiences […]

Igneous rocks are found abundantly in the earth’s crust. Two processes lead to the formation of Igneous rocks. The first process results when the molten or liquid rock(magma) cools and crystallizes deep inside the earth thus forming the characteristic rocks. They can also be formed when the molten rock(lava) erupts from a volcano and hardens […]

When evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of renewable and non-renewable energy sources, it’s essential to consider their impact on both the environment and economy. Imagining a hypothetical world without vital appliances such as washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, computers, televisions, lights, and cars can provide insight into how crucial energy is in our daily lives. Additionally, […]

Wind turbines utilize airfoils to capture the wind’s kinetic energy. The amount of air captured can vary depending on the variable being changed. A similarity between a blade and an airplane wing is their similar function. When the wind blows, both the downwind side of the blade and an airplane wing form a pocket of […]

Understanding surface winds and winds aloftRelationship between temperature and pressure:Higher temperatures, air rises and pressure decreases due to lower density. Lower temperatures, air sinks, pressure increases due to higher density. Surface winds: Winds are moving air and winds flow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure due to the Pressure Gradient Force […]

Tornadoes can be very dangerous. The United States is the #1 tornado country in the world. At an average 800 tornadoes a year that is the result of 80 deaths and 1500 injuries. Tornadoes can have damage pathways of one mile wide and 50 miles long. This is because the United States doesn’t have many […]

One type of natural disaster regularly experienced in Australia is a tropical cyclone, also known as typhoons, hurricanes, and tropical storms.

The storms are not initialized near the equator because the rotation of the storms is caused by Coriolis Effect. The Coriolis Effect does not deflect the […]

Wind is caused by differences in atmospheric pressure created, in large part, by the unequal heating of the earth’s surface by the sun. Air moves from a region of higher pressure to one of lower pressure and this movement is wind. Any difference in pressure will cause wind, but the greater the difference the stronger […]
