    Picturing the Subsurface With GIS: Data Visualization Techniques for Geophysical Images Using ArcGIS By Lucas Donny Setijadji Geoscientists try to understand the earth's crust using geophysical methods such as gravity and magnetic surveys. Mining geologists also use geophysics to search new mineral deposits. In areas such as the Nevada Great Basin, geoscientists rely more on geophysical images than on geologic maps. The Great Basin area holds one of the biggest mineral concentrations in the

(iii)Quantity and quality: Water availability, Quantity and quality can be affected by landslides. Geotechnical studies and engineering projects to assess and stabilize potentially dangerous sites can be costly. Large, infrequent landslides contribute less to personal and property losses than do the smaller, more frequent slides and debris torrents in populated areas. Every year

    Week 1 Critical and Creative Thinking Questions Name: Gardner Chapter 1 3. How do you think the principle of uniformitarianism accounts for occasional catastrophic events such as meteorite impacts, huge volcanic eruptions or great earthquakes? Uniformitarianism is a scientific clarification on how the rocks, continents and mountains in the planet are created. The material process that occurs on earth has not changed; although the objective conditions have changed radically the principle

    fossils. Fossils are the remains of plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and single-celled living things that have been replaced by rock material or impressions of organisms preserved in rock. Overall it incorporates knowledge occasionally from biology, geology, ecology, anthropology, archaeology, and computer science to understand the processes that have led to the origination and extinction of the different types of organisms since life arose. Henceforth, a paleontologist is a scientist who studies the

    Charophytes are green algae that have been found in fresh water to moderately brackish water environments. Their gyrogonites are minute oval or round calcareous bodies that represent the calcified parts of the oogonium i. e. the female reproductive organs. Most of the plant consists of organic matter that decays shortly after death. Under some circumstances the stems and branches of the plant become calcified and are also preserved in the geologic record. In the absence of the planktonic and benthonic

    The Iron Mask project is located at an elevation of ~425 m above mean sea level and within the Canadian Shield that is characterized by subdued topography with rolling hills and numerous lakes and rivers. Vegetation in the area composes a Boreal forest, and includes both coniferous and mixed-wood forests. Conifer tree species include white and black spruce, balsam, jack pine fir, eastern white cedar, and tamarack, while the deciduous (hardwood) species are mainly white birch and poplar (https://www
