Yellowstone national park
Yellowstone National Park is located primarily in Wyoming but also extends into Montana and Idaho, covering 2,219,789 acres. The Yellowstone Caldera is the largest volcanic system in North America, formed by exceptionally large eruptions, with an underground magma chamber estimated to be 60 km long, 29 km wide and 5-12 km deep. The caldera is considered an active supervolcano that has erupted powerfully several times over the last two million years. Features within the park include the Yellowstone Falls, with Upper and Lower Falls on the Yellowstone River, plunging into the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Old Faithful Geyser erupts approximately every 91 minutes and is the most famous gey
Hoover Dam by John Howard
Hoover Dam is located 48km southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada. It was built between 1931 and 1936 under the direction of President Herbert Hoover, though it was originally planned for Boulder Canyon. The dam is 379m long, 221m tall, and 201m wide at its base. It cost $48 million to build and harnesses the Colorado River to generate hydroelectric power, supplying electricity to millions in the southwest United States.
Adrenal glands
The adrenal glands are located above the kidneys and have two parts - the adrenal medulla and adrenal cortex. The adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine in response to sympathetic stimulation. The adrenal cortex secretes corticosteroids including mineralocorticoids like aldosterone and glucocorticoids like cortisol. Aldosterone regulates sodium and potassium levels in extracellular fluids by increasing sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion in the kidneys. Cortisol regulates carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism to increase blood glucose levels and help the body respond to stress.
Yellowstone National Park Geography
Yellowstone National Park is the world's first national park, established in 1872. It is located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho and is known as a "land of fire and ice" due to its geothermal features and extreme weather. The park sits atop an active supervolcano caldera and contains over half the world's geysers. Yellowstone has diverse geography including forests, rivers, lakes, mountains and canyons that support a wide variety of plant and animal life. Tourism is a major part of the local economy due to attractions like Old Faithful geyser.

Croatan sound
North Carolina's Outer Banks is home to many beautiful estuaries. Estuaries are coastal areas with shallow waters that are mixed with sea water and freshwater flowing from watersheds. These areas are known as nurseries for thousands of species of sea creatures. Sea turtles come ashore to lay their eggs and when those hatch, the baby turtles scramble back toward the ocean where they will live out their lives. Fish, manatee, sharks, starfish, and many other species are at home in the Croatan Sound Estuary.
Geography 5
The document summarizes key geographic features observed during a field trip, including:
Cinder Hill, a cinder cone volcano formed from lava blobs; Fossil Falls, with basalt rocks carved by glacial flows; Mormon Rocks, a sedimentary formation showing layers from past rainfall; and Mono Lake, which contains tufa formations and has higher salinity due to water diversion. The field trip observed evidence of human habitation like obsidian flakes, petroglyphes, and the Manzanar internment camp.
Why The Coalbed Methane
The Late Devonian Frasnian-Famennian mass extinction around 375 million years ago saw the loss of many marine species. New dating of volcanic rocks in Siberia called the Viluy traps suggests they were emplaced in multiple phases, with an early phase potentially contributing to the extinction event. Changes in Earth's systems during the Late Devonian support the role of volcanism in disrupting marine habitats through elevated atmospheric gases and ocean anoxia. An initial pulse of volcanism from the Viluy Traps may have caused marine anoxia and ultimately led to extinction of species.

Floating Wetlands
Louisiana contains many marshes and wetlands that constitute about 40% of the state's landscape, providing important habitat for wildlife. However, Louisiana has experienced a significant amount of wetland loss over recent decades, with around 80% of national wetland loss occurring in the state. Specifically, Louisiana wetlands have declined by 30% just in the past 10 years, which is problematic as the lost wetlands are often converted to open water rather than being restored.

Grand Canyon 2018 by Chloe Tippett
The Grand Canyon was formed over 5 million years by the Colorado River carving through layered sedimentary rock. Erosion and weathering by the river and other natural forces caused the canyon to gradually deepen over millennia as the rock layers were exposed. Today, the 277 mile long canyon reveals nearly 40 distinct rock layers that range in age from over 2 billion years old at the bottom of the canyon to about 200 million years at the rim.
Journey geo ecology

- The author took a road trip by car with friends from Mixedwood Plains, stopping at national parks along the way, to Atlantic Maritime for their vacation.
- Descriptions of the Mixedwood Plains ecozone include its location, landforms of rolling hills and plains underlain by paleozoic rock, fertile soil types, forests of trees and plants, abundance of freshwater mollusks, and wildlife including white-tailed deer.
- The Atlantic Maritime ecozone is described as located in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, with coastal areas
Food chains
Plants harness energy from the sun through photosynthesis and are called producers. Many animals eat plants as vegetarians and are primary consumers. Carnivores and omnivores that eat these primary consumers are secondary consumers. A basic food chain has producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores that eat plants), and secondary consumers (carnivores that eat primary consumers).
Food chains
A food chain describes how energy passes from one organism to another. Producers like plants get energy from the sun, consumers eat producers or other consumers, and decomposers break down waste. A food chain shows a single path of energy transfer, while a more complex food web links multiple food chains together as predators can have multiple prey.

Habitats and foodchains
An ecosystem refers to all the plants and animals that live together in an environment and interact. Different ecosystems can exist close together and some animals belong to multiple ecosystems. All living things are adapted to their environment and habitats in ways that help them survive, such as how seals are adapted to aquatic life. Food chains show what organisms eat other organisms or plants, and start with producers like plants. When one part of a food chain is disrupted, it can negatively impact other parts of the ecosystem. Human activities like habitat destruction and pollution are common reasons why some animal populations become endangered or extinct.
How to build your own country
This document provides instructions for students to create their own imaginary country. It outlines 3 steps: 1) establishing the country's identity by naming it, designing a flag and motto, and creating a map; 2) developing the country's government, constitution, laws, and services for citizens; and 3) assembling the materials into a final product and being prepared to present it. The goal is for students to think creatively about how to govern a country and meet citizens' needs using what they have learned about civics.
Antelope canyon alexa a
Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon located in Page, Arizona. Flash floods over thousands of years carved narrow passageways through the soft sandstone, creating vertical winding walls. In 2010, tourists were stranded by flash floods in the upper canyon, though all were eventually rescued with no fatalities. Guided tours through the restricted canyon are led by authorized Navajo guides and cost between $35-$82 per person.

The document discusses Mauna Loa, one of the largest and most active volcanoes located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Some key details:
- Mauna Loa is the largest active volcano in the world, covering over half of the Big Island of Hawaii.
- At over 13,000 feet tall, Mauna Loa has erupted 33 times since 1843, most recently in 1984.
- As a shield volcano, Mauna Loa has very gentle slopes built up over thousands of years by outpourings of low-viscosity lava.
Julio's petrified forest
The document discusses the petrified forest, which used to be an actual forest that lived over 200 million years ago. Due to geological forces, the trees in the forest became buried over time and their organic material was slowly replaced with minerals like quartz, forming fossils of the petrified wood that can be seen at the location today. The petrified forest national park covers an area of over 85,000 square miles and contains many examples of petrified wood and other fossils from the ancient forest.
Marble canyon nevaeh
Marble Canyon is located in northern Arizona along the Colorado River canyon between Lee's Ferry and the Little Colorado River. The average depth of the canyon is about 1 mile and its width is around 600 yards. In 1956, two planes collided over Marble Canyon, killing everyone on board.
