Biogenous meaning ‘made up of life’‚ is composed of the hard and rock-like parts of dead organisms‚ such as the teeth and bones. The reason why geologists believe that Death Valley was once a shallow‚ warm sea is because limestone is typically formed and found in shallow parts of the

investigate the mechanism of seismic imaging technology. This technology sends the shockwaves to underground to know if there is crude oil and other natural gases beneath the ground. In this way geologists calculates how much amount of oil and gases are available in that area of earth’s surface. As per chevron geologists‚ oil and gas are normally formed in the areas known as reservoir rocks. These are rocks including sandstones which are unique and holds the oil and gas between the grains of sandstones. So

accepted piece of evidence for plate tectonics. It is the patterns on the rocks which presented a problem with the theory. There was thought to be a problem with the description of the movement being “slow and gradual”. According to scientists and geologists the movement would have been performed at a rapid speed. A physicist then predicted where the evidence for this rapid movement could be found and it was later proved that the argument against the theory was correct. The biblical view of plate tectonics

The Eruption of Mount Pinatubo On the 15th June of 1991‚ the second largest volcanic eruption of the twentieth century took place on the island of Luzon in the Philippines‚ 90 km northwest of the capital city Manila. It was also‚ by far‚ the largest eruption to affect a densely populated area. Mount Pinatubo‚ a stratovolcano‚ is part of a chain of volcanoes along the Luzon arc on the west coast (refer map). The arc of volcanoes is due to the subduction of the Manila trench to the west. The mountain
