| (1) The scientific study of the origin, history, and structure of the earth. |
| (2) The structure of a specific region of the earth's crust. |
| As described on the About page, geology became a passion of mine in college. Now, I can't get enough of it. I won't bore you too much with my geology writings, but I urge you to search the vast information superhighway for some knowledge that you might seek. You are probably not going to change careers, but you might find some interesting things about rocks, volcanoes, geology on Mars (an exponentially expanding field), or about my two main interests: subsurface water flow and structural geology (i.e. earthquakes and mountain building). |
| Check back to this page often as I hope to change the geology subjects semiregularly and update some of the pictures that I take in the field. |

| This picture above is a general schematic of the fold-thrust belt geometry during the Sevier-Laramide orogony in which the Southern Rocky Mountains were formed. To read the rest of the paper associated with this figure, click here. |
| Here's the amazing world that we live on that we must stop systematically destroying. |
