Types of Metamorphism: Low P/T, Medium P/T, and High P/T

Now that we know what metamorphic rocks are, and how they form, let's go over the types of metamorphism. The various pressures and temperatures that can be involved in this process determine the type of metamorphic rock that will form, so let's go over all of these sets of conditions and get a sense of it all works.

Amazing job at condensing my whole semester into a 10 minutes video,it was great

[@michaelneve9374]

Best explanation of various protolith to various facies I've come across - thanks professor!

[@bunnykiller]

as always, interesting and educational...

50,000 atmospheres of pressure and 1,000 deg C - sounds like a pretty uncomfortable place to hang out. Out of curiosity, how long would it take graphite under these conditions to metamorphose into diamond? Years? Decades? Centuries? Millenia? Maybe even Eons?

Ur videos are always perfect ❤️🫶🏿

I hope my poor language helps me deliver my thoughts about this video and the more recent previous ones. Due to your enormous efforts and dedication of delivering such high-quality, well studied and illustrated content, i can say that because of you, i now know about scientific facts which otherwise would've been obscure to me. You have filled a gap in my understanding for various topics especially mineralogy (which i was bothering you a lot with my very inquisitive character😅) and for that no amount of thanks will give you the appreciation you deserve but at least, you're providing priceless content for generations to come and that's by itself a huge achievement you only worthy of 😊

Hey congrats on 2.5 million!❤

[@a2sbestos768]

Huh, I usually never read about geology, but today I got interested in how sedimentary rocks are formed, and then metamorphic rocks. And this video comes out. Weird coincidence.

[@Your_god_sucks]

Aron Ra has great videos on geology, with experts.

Thank you for sharing it was very helpful.

Been watching you for years but every time I see you now I think of Apologetics 😂

Thanks do we have a time scale for these processes?

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

Wow... So much info my brain is spinning... Guess I need to review prior geology. Thx

🙋🏻‍♂️So its like a solid ocean ? Do Pressures correlate with temp?

I know its off topic, but do you still play mario kart? I remember in one of your videos you said you were really good at that game, and you havent seen anyone better than you

I haven't played in a looooong time but I bet I can still whoop anyone.

Awe man… I saw the title, and thought it was going to be about caterpillars and cicadas and frogs and coral and all the other types of life that go those changes. But it’s actually about rocks 😢

I read somewhere that you are not a Professor, nor have a PHD, only a BA degree for which you were unsuccessful in getting a Masters, on more than one attempt. Please debunk this for us.

[@ProfessorDaveExplains]

I have a masters and taught at a university and whiny toddlers hate on me because they don’t like when I expose their loser fraud heroes.

[@derric828]

I better ur a cool guy an a nice guy!! But why do u have to talk like that! Y can’t u explain what ur saying clearly!! If he is wrong why won’t u explain. Instead of say her are the papers that do explain!! Do better! That’s what I tell my self

Um, what?
