Pedology (Pedology 🟤)
Pedology is a discipline within soil science which focuses on understanding and characterizing soil formation, evolution, and the theoretical frameworks for modeling soil bodies, often in the context of the natural environment. Pedology is often seen as one of two main branches of soil inquiry, the other being edaphology which is traditionally more agronomically oriented and focuses on ho...
Oceanography (Earth sciences 🌍)
Oceanography 'ocean' and γραφή 'writing'), also known as oceanology, sea science, ocean science, and marine science, is the scientific study of the ocean, including its physics, chemistry, biology, and geology. It is an Earth science, which covers a wide range of topics, including ocean currents, waves, and geophysical fluid dynamics; fluxes of various chemi...

Hydrography (Oceanography 🌊)
Hydrography is the branch of applied sciences which deals with the measurement and description of the physical features of oceans, seas, coastal areas, lakes and rivers, as well as with the prediction of their change over time, for the primary purpose of safety of navigation and in support of all other marine activities, including economic development, security an...

Physiographic province (Geomorphology 🏞️)
A physiographic province is a geographic region with a characteristic geomorphology, and often specific subsurface rock type or structural elements. The continents are subdivided into various physiographic provinces, each having a specific character, relief, and environment which c...

Biogeography (Biogeography 🌍)
Biogeography is the study of the distribution of species and ecosystems in geographic space and through geological time. Organisms and biological communities often vary in a regular fashion along geographic gradients of latitude, elevation, isolation and habitat area. Phytogeography is the branch of biogeography that stud...

Meteorology (Meteorology ⛈️)
Meteorology is a branch of the atmospheric sciences with a major focus on weather forecasting. The study of meteorology dates back millennia, though significant progress in meteorology did not begin until the 18th century. The 19th century saw modest progress in the field after weather observation networks were formed across broad regions. Prior attempt...

Palaeogeography (Paleogeography 🦕)
Palaeogeography is the study of historical geography, generally physical landscapes. Palaeogeography can also include the study of human or cultural environments. When the focus is specifically on landforms, the term paleogeomorphology is sometimes used instead. Paleomagnetism, paleobiogeography, and tectonic history are among its main tools. Palaeogeography ...

Quaternary (Geological periods 🌍)
The Quaternary is the current and most recent of the three periods of the Cenozoic Era in the geologic time scale of the International Commission on Stratigraphy. It follows the Neogene Period and spans from 2.58 million years ago to the present. As of 2023, the Quaternary Period is divided into two epochs: the Pleistocene and the Holocene ; a t...

We also found that a pickaxe (it's backside, same as a mattock) is much better for removing grass than a regular shovel or fork
Sadler effect (Earth sciences 🌍)
The Sadler effect describes variation in apparent sediment accumulation rates and bed thicknesses back through time inherent to the geological sedimentary record. Peter Sadler analysed what structure you would expect in a stratigraphic section under the hypothesis that bigger geological events – episodes of deposition, erosion, and the gaps between th...

Iceland is bracing for an imminent volcanic eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula, in the southwest corner of the island. Grindavík, a small fishing town with a population of around 2,800 people, has been evacuated after a sinkhole measuring 3.2 feet (1 meter) deep appeared in the town... #IcelandVolcano #volcanology #volcano #midatlanticridge #iceland #geography #evacuations #PhysicalGeography #sinkholes #naturaldisasters #EarthScience https://www.livescience.com/live/news/iceland-volcano-reykjanes-peninsula
Closely monitoring the rapidly evolving events unfolding in #Iceland, as I suspect are many #Geology and #PhysicalGeography types (along with #Volcanologists of course) around the world.
And hoping the good people of #Grindavik emerge without too much damage to their town and lives. #Volcano #VolcanicEruption #Earthquake
Map Of Russia Scaled by Population In Every 'State'
--
I saw this 'map' of scaled (sic) by population in evet 'state', and as I am ½ way through reading Tim Marshall's book 'Prisoners Of Geography' I was especially drawn to this view, especially remembering how he described the context of Russia's various physiography features (e.g., the Urals) in terms of regional and national politics, history of warfare, population growth, etc
(unfortunately @maps.n.more seems to no longer be on Twitter to do a H/T)
