Asphalt is the product that remains after distillation of crude oil although it could also be found as natural deposits in sea and lakebeds. Asphalt is the core product in the construction of roads and [...]
The country holds the largest natural gas reserves and is among the top ten in terms of crude oil reserves. In addition, Russia is the fifth producer and the third largest exporter of coal in [...]
The aim of the article is to popularize the concept of flooding as an external force that acted in shaping the earth as much as glaciation.
Hence, knowledge of the isotope that was present during the formation of the rock and the rate at which the unstable isotope changes can be used to establish the age of the rock depending on [...]
With regard to the above-presented report, the purpose of the paper is to recreate the gradual stages of geological and stratigraphic changes in the identified area with the help of the information obtained from the [...]
The new Madrid Seismic Zone is one of the rocky, mountainous regions in the eastern parts of United States. The large rocks that are found underneath the earths surface in New Madrid are feared to [...]
Other forces that also contributed to the formation of the Grand Canyon are; volcanism, continental drift, some vibrations in the orbit of the earth and many others. This is what caused the layers of rocks [...]
However, there are some measures that should be taken to prevent fire occurrences and reduce the aftermath of a fire outbreak.
If movement occurs in the lower layers of the earth the surface of the earth is disrupted as the displacement is experienced all the way to the top.
Plate tectonics has led to the separation of the sea floor over the years and the earth is composed of seven tectonic plates according to the available geological information.
The urgency of the research presented in Simulation of adsorption of gold nanoparticles carried by gas ascending from the Earth's interior in alluvial cover of the middle lower reaches of the Yangtze River is connected [...]
The main purpose of the initiated research was to determine the relative degree of influence of wave action and lithological type of the rocks on the sea cliff mass movements in Central Algarve Coast in [...]
The earthquake was accompanied by a great tsunami given the high magnitude of the earthquake that reached 9. The third disaster was the meltdown of a number of nuclear plants following the tsunami.
The seismic activity and the relatively regular sequence of the earthquakes in the area of San Paul Fault generated the interest of the geologists in exploring the processes in the rupture.
Therefore, considering the loopholes that have been created by current federal laws, there is need for this method of mining natural gas to be abolished as it is not good at all.
A horn refers to a mountain peak, which is shaped like a pyramid, and which appears as a result of erosion of several glaciers at various sides of a mountain.
The fragments of rock with ice pass through the surface of the earth causing change of the landscape. The processes of sedimentation lead to formation of different kinds of rocks after the eroded materials dissolve [...]
Since, according to the above-mentioned information, natural earthquakes are most common in the places where the edges of tectonic plates meet, it is reasonable to suggest that earthquakes are most common in the countries that [...]
