Crust

that move around across the earth 's surface relative to each other, like big pieces of ice on a lake. If we were able to lay the earth flat to see where the plates were positioned, it would have the appearance of an orange peel; with the earth 's crust as the orange color shell and the white as the lithosphere. The break points would be fault lines, the plate’s outer perimeter that aligns and intersects them. In its early history, geologists believe that the continents and ocean basins of the…

East of the cascades, lava flowed from large cracks in the earth, far from any volcano. Where the earth’s crust is weak, lava may spill out and spread hundereds of squar miles. This prosses is called fissure eruption, or lava flood. Flat platforms called plateaus, are left from the lava cooling. Streams of water carve channels into the surface. Fissure eruption…

Greece is one of the few places in Europe where one could see mountains of oceanic crust, not just pieces of it. Oceanic crust is an underwater mountain system that consists of various mountain chains, typically having a valley known as a rift which is formed by plate tectonics. This type of oceanic ridge is a characteristic of what is known as the oceanic…

Humankind possesses an ability to envision and cherish goals and a fragmented yet promising future. It is this dynamic, hopeful imagining that we call dreaming. What happens to us when our dreams fail to take form, when our desires and plans for achievement are stopped before they reach fruition? The human spirit that was once inspired by the forces of hope and creativity can either become reluctant or defeated, agitated or aggressive. Langston Hughes’s “Harlem” paints a simultaneously subtle…

terms that I had to become accustomed with. First, I had to learn what classifies as a gravity slide. The term gravity slide is referring to gravity slide tectonics. In comparison to a land slide, gravity slides compose of large slabs of the earth’s crust. In Markgragunt, the believed reason why it slid down was because the geography was mainly composed of heavy basalt that has been layered on top of sand and clay, which in due time resulted in a slip that resulted in the gravity…

For much of human history, salt has been mined from the areas around dry lake beds and in deposits left after ancient seas dried up. These bodies of water all evaporated, leaving their crystallized salt deposits behind. Mined salt is sourced from these deposits. It differs from sea salt in that sea salt is taken from living oceans. While it is usually ground finely for sprinkling onto food as table salt, some of it is kept in a coarse and chunky form that is referred to as rock salt. Rock salt…

big impact on the environment considering that it is very toxic to under water animals. Who wants to kill innocent under water animals besides fisherman and weird people. Calcium is found in the earths crust. Ducksters stated that "Calcium is the fifth most common metal in the earths crust."
