Especially with the volcanoes and earthquake maps. I was surprised to see the there were a cluster of volcanoes that lie in the small island of Iceland and I sort of expected to see a line of volcanoes in the area of Japan. The earthquakes were quite interesting as well, with…[Read more]

The maps were clear-cut and simple to understand. I had to keep on referring to the plate boundaries so that I could get a gist of what is happening sometimes on some maps. The topography map stumped me a bit as well but I was able to see some patterns in the end. It was pretty fun seeing all the different type of maps and how…[Read more]

b. The volcanoes occur in clusters, the most clustered ones are the ones around the Pacific plate, Australian plate, a few at the African plate, and a small few in one spot at one portion of the Eurasian plate. The volcanoes at the Pacific plate go around the top and sides of the plate but none…[Read more]

I liked the way that you researched this topic and came to a reasonable conclusion based off your research. Also, like Dahlia mentioned, raising up the issue of climate change and how that could…[Read more]

Reading your conclusion, I would agree with you as well that bigger piles of snow are more difficult to melt, even if the outside temperature is above freezing point. I consider the dense piles of snow to be the pretty conclusive evidence  that those would talk much longer to melt compared to just a…[Read more]

The day that the snow fell, it felt really soft, enough for children to play with and not get hurt. However, I noticed that a couple days later, after all the snow settled and piled up along the sidewalks, the snow was not as soft anymore. It became hard and it…[Read more]

I, too, like to ride bikes, I could ride it all day if I could. I think it would be pretty interesting to learn more about sustainable energies and pollution.

I am of Chinese descent and enjoy crochet, listening to true crime podcasts, and reading. This class is a general requirement for me, I hope to learn more about earth science in general, nothing in specific.

Off the topic of me head, this geologic process interests…[Read more]
