    Really great explanation

  • @luberdoo1950
    @luberdoo1950 3 дня назад

    Thank you for your instruction. I really appreciated your concise explanations of these very complex processes. I have watched all of your videos and the only feedback I would give is that it would be helpful for a 74-year-old beginner to see physical samples of some of the rock/mineral descriptions. I am sure that in your in-person courses, you have samples. I am also bummed out that you appear to no longer create instructional videos. That is too bad for someone like me because you are extraordinary in teaching us and I am betting that you are an excellent professor. I appreciate you. P.S. I just discovered at your Ruppert Rocks Geology site and found many more videos and a few of them actually do have samples and photos. So, the feedback I gave earlier is moot. I would have enjoyed more samples though. Thank you and I'm looking forward to watching the rest of your teaching videos. Many thanks.

      Hello! I am still around. I just only have time to make these videos for my students (and the world) during the summer when I am "off". That is when I have time to do all the things I wish I could do during the school year.

    May I ask where you get the 800 from.. Do we just guess a number for every single problem? I'm very frustrated with my homework lol.

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology 10 дней назад

      I just picked it because it is easy to half a bunch of times. Normally we deal in percents and say we start with 100 percent and 0 percent (parent and daughter).

  • @giuscy
    @giuscy 12 дней назад

    And where do I get the azimuth value from? If I have a strike/dip direction symbol, how do I know what's the value of the azimuth in numbers?

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology 10 дней назад

      If you want the value of the strike, there are a few ways to describe it. The easiest is to make North 0 degrees and then go all the way around to East at 90 degrees, South at 180 and West at 270. Then you just describe it on one of these angles.

  • @LauraHackett-b3y
    @LauraHackett-b3y 14 дней назад

    But how do you know you want to choose 10 as an interval

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology 10 дней назад

      Areas can be contoured at different values. You use an interval of 1 if you wanted (not recommended). In this case, I just picked 10.

    does the last one count as 1 cleavage plane since the planes are parallel?

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology Месяц назад

      Anytime a plane is parallel to another plane it is by definition the same plane. So I am not sure what you mean by the "last one" but if they are parallel then yes!

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology Месяц назад

      In this case you assume the surface is flat and there is no change in elevation. So you do the same thing done here and intersect it with a flat surface.

I have noticed that the Chitina River in Alaska has very interesting rock! Could you please see if there is a cure for our planets heating in geology and “Rock-Ology” thank you

    Question. If the water is filled with water and moves into the unsaturated zone, what are the dangers of this and how can you ensure that the water table will not be filled with water or how can you release it yourself..? Hope that makes sense.

    • @ruppertrocksgeology
      @ruppertrocksgeology Месяц назад

      Water won't move into the the unsaturated zone from below. It only will come in from the sides or above. If all of the space is taken then water pools at the surface.

    Lesson ONE for geologists should be the explanation of the catastrophism theory. This theory is based on the findings of the French naturalist and paleontologist Georges Cuvier around the year 1800. During the excavations when making roads through France, he discovered the fossils from land and sea creatures in the same layer, strata. But also in the layer on top of that and the one below. So he concluded that the planet Earth is suffering from a recurring natural disaster where flooding must cover a large part of the land even on high places. But I assume that this theory is neglected because nobody could think of the possible cause of regular floods. Ancient books tell us that our planet Earth is suffering from a cycle of seven natural disasters. The only possible cause of such a cycle can be a celestial body that orbits our sun in an eccentric orbit. Than that body, planet, will be close to the sun for a short while and disappear in the universe for a long time. That celestial body is also mentioned and even depicted in many ways. The Aztec Sun stone is a warning for this event. Abundant and convincing evidence about this cycle of natural disasters and its timeline and many images are available in the eBook: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". Search: nibiru = 9
