Rock Cycle

Image
The rock cycle is a model of the natural changes that occur in rocks and rock materials on the earth. The diagram to the right distinguishes between those processes that take primarily at Earth's (external processes) and those that take place within the Earth (internal processes).  Internal processes, such as compression and heating require the conditions of extreme temperature and pressure that occur deep within the Earth. The rock cycle illustrates several important principals of geology. First, nearly all rocks are made from the remains of other rocks (coal and other organic sedimentary rocks are important exceptions).  Second, rocks are classified on the basis of their origin.  Finally, there are a variety of ways that rocks can change in response to changing conditions at the surface or within Earth. Homework  due Wednesday, April 6, 2011 Review Book:  read pages 55-56; do questions 54-60 on pages 56-57, and questions 1-10 on pages 59-60.

All the surfers were out on the water and there was volleyball competitions and live music along the beach.   In the evening, we enjoyed our sunset along the waterfront of Newport Beach at the Rusty Pelican. It was truly a delightful Summer Solstice. However, besides spending great moments at the beach, and ...

Igneous Rocks

Image
Igneous rocks form from magma in distinct ways and can be classified based on mineral composition and texture. During this past week we have focused our discussion learning how igneous rocks are classified and how to interpret the chart on igneous rock identification (page 6 in the ESRT). This coming week, we will finish up igneous rocks and begin sedimentary rocks. This Monday we will do one final exercise on Interpreting the Scheme on Igneous Rock Identification. Homework : Due Monday, December 14, 2009 Complete all worksheets on igneous rocks. Test on Minerals and Rocks this Friday, December 18, 2009
