Geology 8 (Weathering and Erosion)

[@noorzainab3618]

I have a midterm tomorrow -I have never been more grateful to find such good lectures!

[@optimisticMona]

Same but it's the finals ,sent that playlist to the whole class a while ago and now revisiting

[@johnlord8337]

Absolutely liking all these charts, never seen them in any of my many other geo courses. Makes immediate sense.

[@kennywalter9877]

Excellent lecture. It's refreshing to hear someone genuinely excited by their topic/area of expertise. It's infectious too. I smiled a lot listening

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Thanks!

[@getzvalerevich6565]

Another morning, another lesson. Thank you again.

[@jeffbrunswick5511]

Yet another fantastic lecture. You are really wonderful at explaining things. Thanks so much.

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Many thanks!

[@diamondcover]

I started off studing gemology but have taken a turn to study geology. I love your videos. They are informative and presented extremely well. Thank you.

[@Live_your_Dreams_Everyday]

These series of lectures are helping to answer the natural questions I came up with to myself on my global travels. Outstanding. Living in Japan there are always so many interesting geological questions! Well done!

[@matthewsutton3682]

This is a great series and this lecturer does a great job. Bravo!

[@bobketteringham4779]

I majored in geology 50 years ago. I’ve been away from it. This series is great!

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Thank you. I'm currently re-recording many of these lectures and expanding and updating them. Hopefully you'll stay around to check those out when they are released over the coming months.

[@Bloodknok]

These are a really great series - I’m watching each in sequence and learning some interesting facts

[@ABettle2024]

very amazing lecture, completely fascinating and thanks so much for doing this lecture i learn so much from u and would like it if u made more like this

2:40- very common roadside terrain often seen enforced by sloping covered by a concrete layer. But that may not have stopped this slide given the massive backdrop soil cliff.

[@madelynhughes8572]

Thanks! your lectures are getting me through earth science!!!

[@Jo-rr1oh]

Enjoying this before going to sleep

[@timdunk7278]

Thank you, great lecture!

[@ninjarider2941]

The image at 1:30 shows a landslide that occurred in northern Taiwan in 2010 after a lot of rain.

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Thank you for that clarification.

[@roxanag.4427]

Excellente Master Class!!!

[@davidkelter8379]

Could you do a lecture on Karst, caves and sinkholes? Or would that fall under the erosion lecture? Thank you.

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

It will go into my groundwater lecture which is currently being revised to incorporate that information. Good suggestion!

[@davidkelter8379]

@@EarthandSpaceSciencesX I look forward to seeing that. Those are such interesting landforms and I'm very interested in your interpretation of how they're formed. For those of us in the water profession dealing with PFAS and other emerging contaminants, the more reliable and quality references we have to be informed with the better. I'll be tuned in. Thank you for the update.

[@SammiZelley]

Thank Goddess for your lectures!

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

You are so welcome!

[@loopbraider]

New very basic physical weathering force recently discovered! - heating of rocks on hot days causing enough expansion to crack rock, similarly to frost wedging. Study in Yosemite found that significantly higher number of rock avalanches happened after hot days. That exfoliating video is thought to be an example of this.

[@yigitdemir917]

It is very helpful and interesting. Thank you very much for your great effort..

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Thank you for your appreciation!

[@k283535]

Thank you sir Very precious information

[@tpstrat14]

something about that transition timing from 1:21 made me laugh really hard. "OK." No, not OK. That doesn't look OK at all for those people.

[@MikalaFORCELLINI]

can i ask your opinion about this documentary, please ? (reading at 16:20 mn). Thanks a lot

[@colwem]

When I go hiking, sometimes my trekking pole hitting the rock (usually granite) makes a reverberating hollow sound. The sound is just like the sounds I was hearing in your live exfoliation video. Do you think the hollow sounds I’m hearing are the same thing? Voids left under the layer of rock I’m standing on due to exfoliation? Not active crack forming or anything, but am I standing on a sheet of rock that is loose and slightly floating above a sheet below?

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

It’s entirely possible.

[@joeyhinds6216]

How mighthe concentration of atmospheric co2 affect the rate of surface erosion? I imagine clay minerals would not form without carbon dioxide present? And would higher concentrations necessarily mean higher rates of erosion?

[@muhammadfahim6530]

Salt tectonics also act similar to pluton in mechanical breaking of overlying rocks

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

That’s true when the pluton is shallowly emplaced and the rocks are brittle.

[@ashishprakash9322]

Great Videos Sir.Please explain igneous and ore geology in your next videos too.Thnx

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

I'll consider that suggestion for my next video series. Right now I'm taking a short break before I begin my series on Environmental Science.

[@yazanasad7811]

Entropy - as things breakdown, increase in surface areas means more areas of exposure likely to be attacked

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

True

I would like to consult with professor. Any one know how to make contact.

[@nishasogoodpuddingandmore8441]

Very Interesting

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

Very!

[@senieboss267]

thank you so much Dude

[@georgeasantesiaw]

Thanks so much

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

My pleasure! Glad you found it helpful.

[@Droffilc55]

You said we can email you with questions. Where do I find your email address? Thanks, Cliff

[@Prash1c]

Might be for the original class he was teaching in 2015.

[@Droffilc55]

@@Prash1c ok, thanks. That makes sense

[@genaro192]

bless you!

[@Null432hz]

thank you for sharing

Salactite no G in the ceiling growth.

[@EarthandSpaceSciencesX]

That's true. Childhood habit I still carry is to pronounce "c" like "g" in certain instances. Linguistically, the two letters are linked but that's another story. lol

I think the word you're looking for is "superficial"

[@nibiruresearch]

When we look at the Grand Canyon we see many horizontal layers on top of each other but close-ups of these layers also show that they are completely separated from each other and the layers look rather homogeneous. How is this possible? Each layer is the effect of a recurring natural disaster, a huge tidal wave that is pulled over the planet, that is caused by a celestial body that circles our sun in an eccentric orbit. A thick layer of homogeneous mud remains on our planet. Fantasy? No, ancient knowledge that is available in books, legends, myths and religions. The many earth layers are solid proof for this recurring disaster. No scientist will agree to this because they all are focused on their small part of science. They know a lot about a little. Those natural disasters occur in a cycle of seven and create a cycle of five civilizations. The longest living civilization lives no more than 10,800 years. Nonsens? No, ancient knowledge and that knowledge is supported by many depictions that we find in museums on statues, cylinder seals, coins etc. The last time that this celestial body, planet X or nine, was seen and depicted and commented was just before our era.To learn much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". This book answers many of your questions about ancient history. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest
