Doc Brown's Chemistry - Earth Science & Geology Revision Notes

Geological Earth Science and the Earth's Atmosphere, Biosphere, Hydrosphere and Lithosphere

Index page for rocks and plate tectonics etc.!

• A series of 'programmed' questions covering the basics of Atmospheric Evolution and Geological Earth Science It covers from atmospheric evolution, carbon cycle, igneous-metamorphic-sedimentary rock formation and properties, volcanoes, intrusions, plate tectonics etc. etc.! The idea was to start with a series of questions and the revision notes develop through researching and working out the answers - at least that's the theory!,
  • but the answers can be used quite simply as a set of revision notes for Geological Earth Science!
    • TIP - if you are just seeking information on one small section, use the main cue number titles 1. to 10. on either page and search through the Q for a 'connection'.
    • ANSWERS-NOTES
      • 1. The Evolution of the Earth's atmosphere, Gases in Air, Carbon Cycle, Origin of Life
      • 2. The Rock Cycle and types of rock (details 'evolve' through sections 3. to 9.)
      • 3. Weathering of Rocks
      • 4. Igneous Rocks
      • 5. Sedimentary Rocks
      • 6. Metamorphic Rocks
      • 7. The Structure of the Earth
      • 8. Plates and their movement, Continental Drift Evidence
      • 9. Plate Tectonics - effects of plate movement, earthquakes, volcanoes, faults
      • 10. Rocks on the Moon and Planets
