Had a thought, I can’t possibly be the first, but hoping for clarity from folks that know. I understand we usually point to CO2/greenhouse gases as a main driver of climate change, right? Makes sense, but isn’t it simpler to point to us generating heat? For ex: heating in the winter, burning wood for fire, etc. Even AC’s ultimately create heat as a byproduct. I’m aware these things are very complicated and multifaceted, but- Can anybody explain why this doesn’t make more sense? Thanks!

Hey all. I'm just starting a short unit on space/Earth science with my middle schoolers. Can anyone think of a good lab or activity that they might find interesting right off the bat? Something that doesn't require a lot of knowledge ahead of time? I was thinking of a mineral ID lab.. but I haven't really taught them anything about minerals or rocks yet.. amd that's not exactly a super exciting topic. Literally, all they've done so far is watched a video and discussed The Big Bang and How Earth Formed. Thanks in advance! Any ideas are appreciated! submitted by /u/TheBigRage454 [visit reddit ..read more

I want to conduct a study to determine road conditions and detect change using NASA’s Earth Observation Satellite (EOS) data. Which EOS data would be best to use ? Any advice is appreciate. I am learning how to use Google Earth Engine to collect, analyze, and visualize data. submitted by /u/gis4good [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey Guys. I'm no reservoir geology specialist, but for my research I do have to look at some logs. The neutron porosity log has a scale from 42 to -18 PU (%). How can a rock have a negative porosity? Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/ThompsoniusIV [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi there. I’ve got an integrated masters in geology. My masters dissertation was in landslide simulation, and I have always been very interested in natural disaster mitigation. I’m currently working as a shallow marine geophysicist, and am curious in the application of geophysics within natural disaster mitigation. Anyone have experience in this? Any career paths, or would it lie only within academia? Cheers :) submitted by /u/figsontrees [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
