Geologic Theories
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page comparison of the theories of
catastrophism, neptunism, uniformitarianism and plutonism or volcanism. Describes the contentions of each and concludes that contemporary
thought recognizes a combination of Neo-Catastrophism and uniformitarianism as being the most logical explanation of the forces which shaped the earth. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Geological Rock Formation
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Stratigraphy, the scientific study of geological history as devised by English engineer William Smith, came into existence some two hundred years ago. Smith's discovery of identical fossil-bearing rock located in vastly divergent areas of England made him realize that this was something much more than mere coincidence. Taking this knowledge and utilizing it to his benefit, the engineer created stratigraphic maps, which enabled him to "predict accurately the location of undiscovered coal beds" (Florida Museum of Natural History, 1997). Having discovered the same layers of rock and fossil formation existing in opposite locations helped Smith to determine just where hidden coal beds existed; learning that specific rocks layers were associated with coal beds, it became quite a simple task to find those that remained unrevealed. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Geomorphology
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page paper on geormorphology explains the
scientific study of landforms and landscapes. The term
geomorphology applies normally to the origins as well as the
dynamic morphology (changing structure and form) of the earth's
land surfaces, but it may also include the morphology of the
seafloor as well as the analysis of extraterrestrial terrains.
Sometimes included in the field of physical geography,
geomorphology is in actuality the geological prospect of the
visible landscape. This fascinating science has developed in two
distinctive ways that should be integrated in order for the
entire structure of the understanding of landscapes to emerge.

Global Positioning Systems
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Humans have forever longed to explore the unknown elements of space, a vast, mysterious entity that engulfs a planet currently inhabited by several billion people. Indeed, one of the ultimate -- if not awe-inspiring -- quests in relation to space exploration has been to determine just how hospitable other planets' living
conditions are as the earth's own population continues to push the limits of sustenance. Another even more compelling reason for delving out into the darkness of space is to find out what other forms of life might also live within the
galaxies; certainly, people are not so egocentric to think that humans are the only life forms to exist. Yet a third has become one of the most intriguing components of contemporary space exploration: global position systems (GPS). GPS has, indeed, captured the attention and imagination of earthlings worldwide, inasmuch as it represents the future in space exploration. Bibliography
lists 5 sources.

Global Warming: A Discussion of the Natural Processes Encapsulated by the Milankovitch Theory and the More Deleterious Manmade Influences
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of global warming as it is influenced by natural processes determined by the earth's rotation around the sun, natural processes encapsulated by the theories of Serbian astrophysicist Milutin Milankovitch. The author of this paper asserts that the actions of those natural processes have been added to by pollution and activities such as deforestation. The result is an escalated scenario of global warming, a scenario with potentially disastrous results. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
