Geophysics is a subject of natural science concerned with the physical processes and physical properties of the Earth and its surrounding space environment, and the use of quantitative methods for their analysis. A geophysicist is someone who studies the Earth using gravity, magnetic, electrical, and seismic methods. Some geophysicists spend most of their time outdoors studying various features of the Earth, and others spend most of their time indoors using computers for modeling and calculations.

Hydrogeology is the study of groundwater – it is sometimes referred to as geohydrology or groundwater hydrology. Hydrogeology deals with how water gets into the ground (recharge), how it flows in the subsurface (through aquifers) and how groundwater interacts with the surrounding soil and rock (the geology).

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

Stratigraphy is a branch of geology concerned with the study of rock layers and layering. It is primarily used in the study of sedimentary and layered volcanic rocks. Stratigraphy has two related subfields: lithostratigraphy and biostratigrap

Environmental geology, like hydrogeology, is an applied science concerned with the practical application of the principles of geology in the solving of environmental problems. It is a multidisciplinary field that is closely related to engineering geology and, to a lesser extent, to environmental geography.

A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope. Landslides are a type of “mass wasting,” which denotes any down-slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity. They are classified into four main types: fall and toppling, slides (rotational and translational), flows and creep.

There are a whole lot of people out there asking, “What tools do geologists use?” While this question has many possible answers, I think that there are some basic tools that almost all geologists use.Here’s a list of the most common tools among geologists Rock Hammer ,Hand Lens ,Field Notebooks ,Clipboard ,Pencil Magnet1oz Acid Bottle and holder(typically filled with HCl) ,Retractable knife (or Mohs Hardness Testing Kit) ,Pocket Scriber An assortment of scales and reference materialsField Vest Compass or Transit ,Handheld GPS.

Infrared technology can help scientists to predict volcanic eruptions, and to search for gold and silver hidden in the ground. The same technology used to study geology on the Earth is also used to study Venus and Mars. The geology of Mars is sometimes called “areology.”

Volcanology is the study of volcanoes, lava, magma, and related geological, geophysical and geochemical phenomena. The term volcanology is derived from the Latin word vulcan. Vulcan was the ancient Roman god of fire.

Paleontology, sometimes spelled palaeontology, is the scientific study of life that existed prior to, and sometimes including, the start of the Holocene Epoch. It includes the study of fossils to determine organisms’ evolution and interactions with each other and their environments.
