Earth Science Lecture Chapter 4 - Plate Tectonics
Natural disasters and other geologic changes to our planet’s topography can be traced to the same source, and are the growing pains of a still-forming Earth. The consequences of a changing planet have their origins in the drifting motion of the Earth’s crust. Earth’s geologic story begins with the Theory of Continental Drift and later described in Plate Tectonics. Earth’s internal structure is investigated for the source of the driving energy behind plate tectonics and presented with numerous ex

Earth Science Lecture Chapter 9 - The Atmosphere & Global Warming
Our planet’s last line of defense from the extremely harsh environment of space is our atmosphere. Accumulated over billions of years from outgassing volcanoes, gases have collected into a thin band enveloping the Earth. The layered structure of the atmosphere is described, including the properties and functions of each layer. The composition of the air is detailed, and natural phenomena such as rainbows, sunsets and the northern lights are explained.

Earth Science Lecture Chapter 8 - Oceans
The last undiscovered frontier on Earth are the oceans. It is the vast body of salt water that covers almost three quarters of the planet’s surface. We know more about the surface of the Moon than we know about the ocean floor here on Earth. Complete darkness, freezing temperatures and crushing pressures are the formidable factors that make deep ocean exploration an extremely challenging task. The properties of salinity and temperature are investigated for different oceans around the world, incl
