pengertian cara mempelajari geologi ilmu-ilmu terkait sistem dalam geologi profesi yang berhubungan dengan geologi

Pengertian
Geology: The study of the Earth as a whole, its origin, structure, composition, and history (including the development of life), and the nature of the processes which have given rise to its present state.

Whitten, DGA and Brooks, JRV. 1977. The Penguin Dictionary of Geology. Middlesex: Penguin Books. p. 204.

Pertanyaan: Cari definisi lain dari buku-buku geologi berbahasa Inggris di Perpustakaan Pusat.

Cara mempelajari
Mengikuti pendidikan geologi Loka dan wahana utama: Perpustakaan termasuk internet Laboratorium (studio) Lapangan

Perhatikan Belum dikatakan belajar geologi sebelum ke lapangan, laboratorium dan perpustakaan!

Why Study Geology?

Because geology is all around us.
1. Geological Resources 2. The Environment Environmental 3. Geological Hazards Geology
(Changes posing risks)

4. Engineering 5. Landforms and Surface Processes 6. Historical Geology

Geology forms the basis of our great civilizations

Why Study Geology?

1. Geological Resources
The Cradle of Civilization (Fertile Crescent) Development limited by availability, e.g., soil, water, energy Conflicts based on resources, e.g., water, minerals, oil

http://encarta.msn.com/

Misuse of Resources
2. The Environment
These Maps illustrate the Fertile Crescent in 1973 (top) and 2000 (bottom). Permanent marshlands, pictured in green, have shrunk 90 percent in that period.

Misuse of Geologic Resources

2. The Environment

Overuse of Geologic Resources

2. The Environment (Geology in the News)
1.7 billion are joining the consumer class and the environment wont sustain this standard of living (Worldwatch Institute
2004)

Emissions of Greenhouse gasses is accelerating global warming

Climate change is accelerating melting of glaciers and driving mass extinctions

4. Geology in Engineering
Slope Failure Risk Assessment and Control

To prevent slope failure engineers must understand the geology that forms and controls the slope

Geology in Engineering
The Leaning Tower Straightens Up
In Pisa the tilted one is back in business after an 11-year effort to keep it from collapsing
Committee member John Burland, an engineer, promoted soil extraction as the best way to save the tower.

Engineers use knowledge of geology to design, protect and correct structures
