Geology is the scientific study of the Earth, its structure, composition, processes, and history. It encompasses various sub-disciplines, including mineralogy, petrology, paleontology, and geophysics, among others. Geologists investigate the materials that compose the Earth, the processes that shape it (such as volcanism, erosion, and plate tectonics), and the history of its formation and development over geological time spans. This field plays a crucial role in understanding natural resources, natural hazards, and environmental changes, as well as in contributing to knowledge about the planet’s past and its future dynamics.
