Geology
Geology is the
science and study of the solid and liquid matter that constitutes the
Earth. The field of geology encompasses the study of the composition,
structure,
physical properties, dynamics, and
history of
Earth materials, and the processes by which they are formed, moved, and changed. The field is a major
academic discipline, and is also important for
mineral and
hydrocarbon extraction, knowledge about and mitigation of
natural hazards, some
Geotechnical engineering fields, and understanding
past climates and environments.
