Who can it belong to? fossil tooth
Earth scienceAsked by: Chris Follette How do you identify a fossil tooth? Quote from video: We can look at the serrations. On the edges of these teeth and they're themselves very differently shaped. The teeth have different proportions. And different curvatures. And. What is a fossil tooth? Teeth fossilize through a process called permineralization. As water
How does quartz form in calcite veins?
Earth scienceAsked by: Chris Follette Under normal temperature-pressure conditions silica / quartz precipitates or dissolves extremely slowly, but at higher pressures and temperatures the kinetics of crystallization are dramatically accelerated. So precipitation of quartz and calcite is actually quite common. How is a quartz vein formed? The simplest type of a quartz vein is the filling
Would oceans regenerate if removed?
Earth scienceAsked by: Debbie Contreras Does the earth make new water? Over millions of years, much of this water is recycled between the inner Earth, the oceans and rivers, and the atmosphere. This cycling process means that freshwater is constantly made available to Earth’s surface where we all live. Volcanoes release massive amounts of water from
Is there open scientific analysis of the proposed discharge of water from Fukushima?
Environmental ProtectionAsked by: Debbie Contreras Is Fukushima still leaking radioactive water? Radioactive waste water has been discharged into the Pacific Ocean since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, triggered by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on in Japan. How much radioactive water was released from Fukushima? 1.25 million tons Japan announced today it will release 1.25
Does this optical phenomenon have a name?
Earth scienceAsked by: Jana Kemp What is the name of the optical phenomenon? A halo (ἅλως; also known as a nimbus, icebow or gloriole) is an optical phenomenon produced by the interaction of light from the sun or moon with ice crystals in the atmosphere, resulting in colored or white arcs, rings or spots in the
What is solidus and liquidus temperature of granite?
Earth scienceAsked by: Jana Kemp The liquidus and solidus temperatures are 925-665 C (initial4.5%H2O), 750-630 C. What is solidus and liquidus temperature? Simply put, liquidus is the lowest temperature at which an alloy is completely liquid; solidus is the highest temperature at which an alloy is completely solid. Pure metals are fluid, and they melt at
Volcanic Explosivity Index of Cumbre Vieja eruption
Earth scienceAsked by: Delfeayo Mazatan Is a VEI 9 eruption possible? It is possible that evidence for a VEI 9 eruption exists and is buried in the geologic record. Eruptions that large would be very rare events, but it is impossible to say that eruptions that large have never occurred. What was the last VEI 8
What does the motion of water in tsunamis look like?
WaterAsked by: Delfeayo Mazatan How does water move in a tsunami? Unlike wind-driven waves, which only travel through the topmost layer of the ocean, tsunamis move through the entire water column, from the ocean floor to the ocean surface. What does the water look like before a tsunami? An approaching tsunamis is sometimes preceded by
How do we know how much Uranium was in any given sample when it was deposited?
Earth scienceAsked by: Augie Sims How does uranium series dating work? U-Th dating is based on the activity ratios of parent (Uranium) and product (Thorium) isotopes, by calculating the disintegration of the parent to the daughter over time. This is done by the detection (mass spectrometry) of both the parent (234U) and daughter (230Th) products of
Is there a name for a type of algorithm or processing which uses only one source of data as input?
Earth scienceAsked by: Augie Sims What are the 4 types of algorithm? Introduction To Types of Algorithms Brute Force algorithm. Greedy algorithm. Recursive algorithm. Backtracking algorithm. What is an algorithm for processing? An algorithm is a procedure used for solving a problem or performing a computation. Algorithms act as an exact list of instructions that conduct
