12^th Environmental Science and Pollution Control Congress

Geosciences

The scientific study of natural geologic system and Earth is known as Geoscience. The investigation and the study of water, soil and Earth’s minerals are done. It also includes Environmental Geochemistry, Hydrogeology and Geomorphology. The application of geologic knowledge to identify, remediate and prevent the environmental problems that result from human activities is known as Environment Geology. The quantitative understanding of Earth system working and the current state evolved can be studied by the use of the tool of mathematics, chemistry, biology, physics, and chronology is done by Earth Scientists. Some Earth scientists are using their Earth knowledge to locate and develop mineral and energy resources. Two major geological subfields are Volcanology and Seismology. These sciences can assist in predicting the dangers and mitigating the effects of natural hazards such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and landslides.
