New cards

geology

influences the type, location, and intensity of natural processes and hazards

2
New cards

tectonic cycle

creation, destruction, and movement of tectonic plates (driven by internal energy)

3
New cards

rock cycle

formation and transformation of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks (internal energy, radioactive decay)

4
New cards

hydrologic cycle

movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the earth (external energy like the sun)
