3.3 mountain formation
The document discusses the four main types of mountains: folded mountains formed by continental collisions, fault-block mountains formed by dropping rock blocks, volcanic mountains formed by molten rock erupting, and dome mountains formed when molten rock pushes up rock layers. Plateaus are also discussed as being large uplifted areas of flat rock formed slowly over time. The Sierra Nevada mountain range in California was formed when thick horizontal rock layers were slowly lifted up.
Mountain buildings-Geomorhology Chapter
Mountain building occurs through various geological processes including volcanic activity, tectonic activity like folding and faulting of rocks. The key factors that influence rock deformation are temperature, pressure, rock type, and time. Different types of stresses like compression, tension, and shear can cause rocks to deform through folding or fracturing. Major mountain ranges form at convergent plate boundaries through compression of colliding plates.
Mountains
The document discusses the four types of mountains: fold mountains, block mountains, relict mountains, and volcanic mountains. Fold mountains are the most common and tallest mountains, formed by folding of the earth's crust. Block mountains are formed by uplift caused by faulting. Relict mountains are remnants of older mountain ranges formed by weathering. Volcanic mountains are created by eruptions of molten rock through openings in the earth's crust.

This is the notes and slides provided and compiled by teachers from reputable schools. Took me many months to compile this and share with you guys! By the way, the slides with a star usually mean that it will be significant so take note! Sharing with you now is this notes!!! Enjoy and love geography!!!
Sec 3 Geo: Introduction to Earthquakes
Earthquakes occur along fault lines when built-up stress in rocks is suddenly released. They can happen at plate boundaries where plates converge, diverge, or move past each other. The type and extent of damage from earthquakes depends on factors like the depth of the focus, distance from the epicenter, underlying soil and preparedness of people in the affected area. Some choose to remain in quake-prone regions due to acceptance of risks or ability to adapt infrastructure. Major historical quakes include those in Sumatra, Japan, Sri Lanka, and San Francisco.
Fold mts& volcanoes blog
People still choose to live near volcanoes despite the dangers for several reasons:
1. The soil from volcanic eruptions is very fertile, making the land suitable for agriculture.
2. Volcanic areas are rich in valuable minerals, providing jobs from mining these resources.
3. Tourism to view volcanoes can generate income for local communities through businesses catering to visitors.
4. With limited land available for housing and farms, volcanoes may be the only option despite the risks. The economic benefits outweigh the dangers for sustaining livelihoods.

Volcanoes and Other Igneous Activity
The document discusses factors that influence volcanic eruptions such as magma composition, temperature, viscosity, and dissolved gases. Magma that is hotter, has lower silica content, and allows gases to easily escape will erupt more violently. Volcanic eruptions produce lava flows and pyroclastic materials. There are three main types of volcanoes - shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and composite cones - that differ in shape and eruptive material. Magma originates from melting of solid rock in the crust and upper mantle due to increased temperature from heat sources like subduction zones. Plate tectonics control volcanic activity at convergent and divergent plate boundaries as well as intraplate hotspots

It also summarizes how earthquakes occur along boundaries between tectonic plates when built-up pressure is released through sudden movements along faults.
08 volcanism intrusive and extrusive features
This document discusses different types of volcanic features, both intrusive and extrusive. It defines intrusive features like dykes, sills, laccoliths and batholiths, which form underground from magma cooling and solidifying below the surface. Extrusive features like lava flows, cinder cones and composite volcanoes form above ground from magma erupting as lava. The document also categorizes different types of lava based on their viscosity and chemical composition, and classifies volcanoes based on the violence of their eruptions. It aims to help students understand the major forms of volcanic landforms and the geological processes that create them.
Volcano
Volcanoes are cone-shaped landforms with an opening at the top or sides that allow hot, thick clouds of gas, molten rock, and ash to escape. According to PHIVOLCS, volcanoes are classified as either active if they have erupted within the last 600 years or 10,000 years ago based on analysis, or inactive if they have not erupted in over 10,000 years and are being eroded through weathering.
Geo 110 Volcanoes
Volcanoes form from magma sources deep within the Earth's crust and upper mantle. The type of magma and resulting volcano depends on the tectonic setting. At divergent boundaries, basaltic shield volcanoes form from mafic magma at mid-ocean ridges. Convergent boundaries produce a variety of volcanoes from basalt to rhyolite depending on the composition of the subducting plate. Hot spots can form volcanoes that produce basalt or rhyolite lavas. Major hazards from volcanoes include lava flows, pyroclastic flows, lahars, toxic gases, and climate impacts from ash and gases. Monitoring helps predict future volcanic activity and eruptions.
Lecture 2 global significance of volcanic activity
Volcanic eruptions occur along tectonic plate boundaries and above mantle hotspots. [1] On average, volcanic disasters kill about 1,000 people per year, though large eruptions can be devastating. [2] Eruptions vary in size, from many small eruptions to rare "great eruptions". [3] There are around 450 volcanoes classified as active that have erupted historically, and over 200 considered capable of future eruptions. [4] The type of eruption depends on the volcano's magma composition, with basaltic volcanoes generally less explosive than rhyolitic volcanoes. [5] The greatest volcanic threats are from intermediate volcanoes located in den
Parts of a Volcano
A magma chamber is a large underground pool of molten rock found beneath the Earth's surface. The pressure from the magma can fracture the surrounding rock over time, creating pathways for the magma to travel through conduits and erupt at the surface in events like volcanic eruptions. When magma erupts at the surface, it is called lava and can take different forms like pahoehoe, a'a, or pillow lava depending on its viscosity and cooling conditions.
Chapter 9 folding and faulting
This document discusses key concepts around folding and faulting in the Earth's crust. It describes how fold mountains like the Himalayas are formed by compressional forces causing rock layers to bend and crumple. The Himalayas were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates around 50 million years ago. Faulting is caused by fractures in the crust along which rock masses move, and can result in normal faults, reverse faults, and transform faults. Block mountains and rift valleys can form from the vertical displacement of rock blocks along these fault lines. The Great Rift Valley extending through Africa provides an example of a rift valley formed by tectonic forces tearing apart the Earth's crust.
3.1 crust deformation
This document discusses how the earth's crust is deformed through processes like plate tectonics and isostatic adjustment. Isostatic adjustment occurs when parts of the crust change in weight, causing the crust to rise or sink to reach equilibrium. Stress on the crust is caused by plate movement at boundaries where they collide, separate, or rub past each other. The three main types of stress are compression, tension, and shearing.
Volcanoes
This document provides information about volcanoes, including:
1) It describes the different types of volcanoes such as active, dormant, and extinct volcanoes.
2) It lists and explains the various products created by volcanoes, including lava, pyroclasts, ash, gases, and lahars.
3) It discusses both the positive and negative effects of volcanic activity, noting how volcanoes can create new land but also cause destruction through lava flows, pyroclastic flows, and ash clouds.
Science portfolio Presentation - Conductors
The document summarizes an experimental design lab report that tested how the conductivity of different materials affected the temperature of water. The experiment tested copper, aluminum, plastic and glass and measured the temperature change of water in each material over 20 minutes. The results showed that copper produced the highest temperature change and fastest heat transfer, while plastic produced almost no change, supporting the hypothesis. The conclusion was that materials with smaller specific heat capacity can transfer thermal energy faster.
Science Portfolio Presentation - Color and Temperature
This document summarizes an experimental design lab report that tested how different fabric colors are affected by temperature when exposed to heat. The experiment tested 5 different colored fabrics (dark blue, red, yellow, light blue, and green) and measured their temperature over time under a heat lamp. The results showed that dark blue absorbed the most heat, with an average temperature of 20°C, while light blue absorbed the least at 10°C. Overall, the conclusion was that darker colored fabrics absorbed more heat than lighter colored fabrics due to darker colors having a longer wavelength.

Scientific Method - Portfolio Presentation Example
The student conducted an experiment to determine if water has the same mass in liquid and solid form. They weighed ice cubes and then melted the ice and weighed the liquid water. In two of the three trials, the masses were equal, supporting the hypothesis. However, in one trial the liquid water had a slightly higher mass, possibly due to sources of error like not fully drying the beaker. The student concluded that while the masses are nearly equal, more trials could provide more definitive evidence.
Portfolio Lab Report Presentation Example - H2O Liquid & Solid
This lab report compares the mass of water in its solid (ice) and liquid states. The hypothesis is that the mass will be equal since it is the same substance, H2O, in different states. Data from trials show the mass was equal in the solid and liquid states for two trials but different in one trial, possibly due to error. The conclusion is that the mass of H2O is nearly the same in both solid and liquid forms.
Earthquake - Wei Xun
This document discusses how to prepare for an earthquake. It recommends taking several steps before an earthquake hits, such as securing heavy furniture to walls, preparing an emergency kit with supplies like water and food, and making an evacuation plan. The summary also notes that it's important to practice drop, cover, and hold on drills so everyone knows how to stay safe during shaking.
Earth plate wei xun
The document discusses plate tectonics and describes how the Earth's lithosphere is broken into tectonic plates that move over time. It explains that there are two main types of plates - oceanic plates composed mostly of basalt beneath the oceans, and continental plates composed mostly of granite located on land. There are about 16 major tectonic plates that are in constant slow motion, generating geological events like mountain building and volcanism at their boundaries. Alfred Wegener originally proposed the theory of continental drift that recognized plates moved over time.
Nouman Ijaz Divergent Boundary Powerpoint
The document discusses tectonic plates and divergent plate boundaries. It explains that tectonic plates are large, solid pieces of Earth's lithosphere or crust. When two plates move apart at a divergent boundary, new crust is formed by magma from the mantle welling up between the separating plates. There are two main types of divergent boundaries - oceanic-oceanic boundaries which form undersea mountain ridges, and continental-continental boundaries which form rift valleys as the continents move apart.
Photographic evidence Joanne
This document provides information about different types of plate boundaries including convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries. It describes how each boundary forms different geological features like mountains, trenches, and faults. It also discusses earthquakes, seismic waves, tsunamis, volcanoes, and the structure of the Earth's interior.
Continental drift- Yalizet
The document summarizes the theory of continental drift, which was proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. It explains that the continents move across the ocean bed due to shifting tectonic plates at a rate of 1 to 10 cm per year. This movement of plates causes volcanic and seismic activity at plate boundaries. The document also discusses Pangaea, a supercontinent that existed 300 million years ago before breaking apart over 100 million years.
Convection currents - Yalizet
Convection currents in the Earth's interior are thought to cause folding and mountain building by dragging tectonic plates. Convection currents are driven by heat from the Earth's core and radioactive decay in the mantle and crust. Mapping of rock formations and magnetic reversals at ocean ridges provides evidence that supports plate tectonics and convection currents driving the movement of plates.

Subduction zone
Subduction zones occur at convergent plate boundaries where one tectonic plate slides under another plate. There are two types of lithosphere - oceanic and continental - and subduction zones can involve either oceanic-oceanic convergence, oceanic-continental convergence, or continental-continental convergence. Subduction zones are where one plate is pushed down into the mantle as it slides under the edge of another plate.
Photographic evidence - Plate Tectonics
The Himalaya mountain is the highest in the world and contains Mount Everest, the tallest peak. Mount Everest was first climbed in 1953 and both it and the Himalayas were formed at a convergent plate boundary when Earth plates moved toward each other, causing the land to be pushed up and creating the massive mountain range.
Tsunami - Elshaima
A tsunami is a series of huge waves caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea. While tsunamis appear to be only 3 feet tall in water, they can travel very quickly at over 600 mph and destroy entire coastal cities when they make landfall. The size and speed of tsunamis makes them extremely dangerous when they hit land.
Subduction zone - Elshaima
Subduction zones occur at convergent plate boundaries where one tectonic plate slides under another plate. There are two types of lithosphere - oceanic and continental - and subduction can happen between oceanic-oceanic plates, oceanic-continental plates, or continental-continental plates. When two plates converge, one plate will subduct below the other at a boundary called a subduction zone.
Seismic waves - Elshaima
There are three main types of seismic waves: P waves, S waves, and L waves. P waves are the first to arrive and move side to side, while S waves follow and move up and down. L waves, also known as surface waves, are the largest and come last, moving in a circular motion. Seismic waves are caused by the breaking of rock in earth's plates and are recorded by seismographs.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

Photometric and spectroscopic followup with NIRCam and NIRSpec, respectively, confirm the redshift and yield UV-NIR light-curve, NIR color, and spectroscopic information all consistent with a Type Ia classification. Despite its classification as a likely SN Ia, SN 2023adsy is both fairly red (

counterparts, and to confirm that standardized luminosities nevertheless remain constant with redshift.
