Geology Reports Samples For Students

Introduction

Ancient scholars discovered that the earth and universe are very old but many people take this for granted (Dr.Terry 2003). According to recent studies, the idea has been rejected since modern scholars have proved otherwise. The facts of earth being old was developed through geology but htis was opposed by scriptural geologists.The findings obtained then are very essential for not only understanding relationship of Christianity to science but also getting the educating students on current arguments creation,evolution ,social, spiritual and moral implications thereof.

Individual UNESCO Research Historic Cairo: The Wadi Al Hitan or the whale valley

The Wadi Al Hitan or the whale valley is a natural property that was inscribed in the world heritage list in the year 2005. This valley contains valuable remains of early and extinct fossils of archaeoceti and Whales. The fossils contained in this valley are very valuable in demonstrating the process of evolution and emergence of whales as ocean mammal rather than the land mammals. The fossils found in this this valley display the many forms and the life of the early species of whales in the transition period of their evolution (UNESCO, 2013).
This is the only area ...

he research was able to come up with conclusions and recommendations. It recommended that the council should consider excavating the landfall in one site that was considered to be the best of all. This is because it would be cheaper and more pollution free.

Abstract

This study aims at examining different methods used to study the composition and variation of marine organisms and plants. Various methods create different results that show the effect of the geological environment structure in the ecosystem at various oceanic conditions. Temperature variation is used as a major determinant of the population distribution of the organisms and plants found in various ecosystems. For instance, this study will use crocodilian fossils and mangroves to assess the composition of ancient oceanic environments and the trend of the climate and geological change in these conditions (Häder 1999).
This study uses some isotopic ...

Like many other United States National Parks, Badlands is unique unto itself with physical attributes that when they are seen one knows it is Badlands National Park. Located in an area rich with history, the Badlands was created and founded as a national monument in 1939 by President Roosevelt before officially becoming a national park in 1978 (Steiner, 1993). The landscape of buttes, ravines, and hills found in the midst of the prairie of Southwestern South Dakota influenced the Lakota Sioux to call the area, ‘mako sica’ or ‘badlands’ (“South Dakota Legends,” 2003). The Sioux Pine Ridge reservation lies ...

The theory of plate tectonics describes the wide­scale movements of the lithosphere of

the earth. The model is based on the ideas of continental drift, which first gained acceptance in
the early 1900s. The geoscientific community granted the theory even more validity after the
notion of seafloor spreading appeared in the late 1950s. Basically, the lithosphere is not whole
but instead is separated into either seven or eight major plates, depending on the definition that
you use. Every meeting point between plates has its own relative movement, either transform,
convergent or divergent. Volcanic activity, mountain creation and earthquakes all occur along
these edges, and the plates ...

Common methods of Soil Investigation in the EUA

Soil investigation is imperative for various geological reasons. In most cases, subsurface investigation programs are carried to examine the underlying characteristics suggested by field reconnaissance and office research so as to modify, deny or confirm the assumed properties and conditions below the ground surface. Soil investigation and exploration program present a reasonable idea about the underlying soil condition and characteristics. The main aim of soil investigation and subsurface exploration is to determine the geomorphic and geological structures of the site’s subsurface (Ameratunga, Sivakugan & Das, 2016). There are two major methods of soil investigation employed across the UAE.
The ...

Analysis of Water Quality from the Rivers Colne, Holme and Calder Flowing through Huddersfield/Mirfield

Analysis of Water Quality from the Rivers Colne, Holme and Calder Flowing through Huddersfield/Mirfield

Introduction

It is a truism that water is a valuable resource. Rivers are among the major suppliers of freshwater resources for humans and other terrestrial organisms. Thus, without rivers humans could not have survived. The importance of river systems has been elucidated even during the rise of the Egyptian Civilization. The Nile River for instance has provided humans with food, drink, fertile soil and even a site for settlement (Hassan and Al Rasheedy, 2007). The ecosystem services that the river provide to people since time immemorial include water supply ...

The trade and investment relationship between Australia and China demolishes the theory of comparative advantage. According to Adam Smith and Ricardo, it makes sense for a country to focus on the production of goods and services it can do efficiently and purchase goods and services it produces less efficiently from other countries. When this theory is applied to the trade relationship between Australia, a rich country and China, a poor country, we arrive at a paradoxical outcome. The introduction of a free trade regime resulting in Australia-China trading relationship implies that Australian consumers will pay lower prices for imported ...

Nuclear activation analysis method is used in determining element concentration in the wide range of materials. The method relies mainly on neutron excitation because the sample treated produces gamma rays and thus allowing the precise quantification and identification of the trace elements and any other elements contained in the sample (Parry, 2003).
(NAA) has significant chemistry applications in addition to other fields of research such as archeology, medicine, geology, forensic science and environmental monitoring. (NAA) The method mainly relies on activating neutrons and. Therefore, a neutrons source is required for the bombardment of the sample with neutrons leads to ...

Volcanoes - geological formations on the surface of the earth's crust or another planet's crust where magma reaches the surface, forming lava, volcanic gases, rocks, volcanic bombs and pyroclastic flows.
Volcanoes are divided according to the degree of volcanic activity on the active, dormant and extinct. An active volcano is considered to be a volcano erupted in historical time period or during the holocene. The concept of "active" is quite inaccurate, since the volcano, which has active fumaroles, some scientists refer to the active, and some refer this volcanoes to be extinct. Sleepers are considered to be inactive volcanoes, ...

The process of weathering deals with the breaking down of minerals, soils and rocks as well as synthetic materials as a result of contact with the atmosphere, biological entities and water. Weathering is slightly different from erosion, because it does not involve movement. Erosion involves the movement of water, wind, snow or other agents across minerals or rocks. Weathering simply takes place “in situ.” There are two significant types of weathering, chemical and physical. Each can involve a biological component, but the difference is that physical weathering has to do with soils and rocks breaking down as a result of directly contacting ...

Introduction

Geothermal energy refers to natural heat stored underground beneath the earth’s crust. On the ground surface the energy is evident in form of hot and altered ground, hot springs and fumaroles. The energy is tapped by sinking geothermal wells underground. The high temperature and pressure fluid is extracted and through carefully built wells and designed network of pipes and channels the hot steam to the plant turbine to generate electricity. The steam and water are extracted at very high pressure and temperature. The application of geothermal energy has gained popularity globally because of its environmental friendliness. There are ...

Abstract:

Lack of fresh water for agricultural, domestic, and industrial use is a great hindrance to development in many parts of the world. Water shortages are more prominent in the arid and semi-arid areas. In addition to that, the inadequate fresh water resources found in these regions are endangered when it comes to quality due to the numerous man-induced changes. Moreover, the limited water available is limited to groundwater. In there is any surface water, it is mainly flash floods that results from high intensity rainfall that falls for a very short time. Therefore, these floods have very little potential to be a ...
