Hello, Have just spent over three weeks using a microscope while cleaning fossil shark teeth from Bakersfield. Needless to say, I ate and breathed a lot of dust. Now I fell horrible. Cant breath, ache all over and feel hot even tho I have no fever. Anyone else ever heard of getting VF from fossils? ...

Hello, Just a question: "In the past, were the homes on the island serviced by drinking water wells? If yes, does anyone know how deep?" In my experience most older wells (i.e. pre-1980's) were relatively shallow wells. The reason for this is that well drilling technology was relatively cr...

Hello, Modern geology generally excludes global cataclysms as having any role in shaping the surface of the Earth. Catastrophic events are acknowledged as having some limited role: impacts, volcanism, supernovae, climate change etc. but usually such events have been called upon to ‘explain’ certain ...

Hello, Where is your reference to "scalding" water. Are you referring to streams/mists coming up from the ground? Is your assumption that these are geysers? That refers to the period of earth history prior to the deluge, before seasonal rainfall....? Please help. I didn't find the right so...

Hi, Geodynamics is a subfield of geophysics dealing with dynamics of the Earth. It applies physics, chemistry and mathematics to the understanding of how mantle convection leads to plate tectonics and geologic phenomena such as seafloor spreading, mountain building, volcanoes, earthquakes, faulting ...

Hi, What importance has mathematics in paleontology ? Could paleontology still be studied without the use of mathematics ? Beside taxonomy of fossils (not even sure if that does not require maths) what part of paleontology does NOT require mathematics. I had a discussion with a friend who argues tha...

Hi, the moisture storage function of mineral wool says, that reaching a water content of 44,65 kg/m³ (100% r.h.) leads to condensation and therefore to a critical situation. But mineral wool does not "store" moisture, so you cannnot be sure why the water content varies in the range below t...

Hi, I am looking for a GPS to be used for my geological field work this summer. I will be working in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada, and need a rugged, good quality GPS with good accuracy that preferably isn't too expensive. Waterproof for sure, since I will be outdoors all the time. I have used the ...

Hi, Does anyone have any thoughts on how useful a masters in hydrogeology is? Based on the BLS occupational outlook and indeed.com it seems like a pretty small field. Does this make it difficult to find a job?Some jobs look for an environmental engineer or a geologist. Is someone with a hydrogeology...

Hi, I enjoy sorting through micro-matrix. Between the times that I'm able to spare a Saturday to drive 3 hours to the Peace River to sift for larger fossils, I like to have some micro-matrix on hand so I can easily scratch the itch when I feel the need to hunt for fossils--even if it is only from th...
