The geologic time scale is a system that organizes Earth's history into distinct intervals based on changes in the rock record. It helps geologists understand the sequence of events in Earth's history, the evolution of life, and the timing of major geological events such as mountain building and climate change. By providing a framework for dating rocks and events, the geologic time scale is essential for interpreting Earth's past and predicting future geological processes.
Pure geology focuses on studying the Earth's processes and history, while applied geology uses geological knowledge to solve practical problems such as mineral exploration, environmental conservation, and natural hazard mitigation. Pure geology is more theoretical and academic, while applied geology is more practical and has direct real-world applications.

Geological foundation refers to the underlying structure or composition of the Earth's crust that provides support for buildings and other structures. It is important for engineers and architects to understand the geological foundation of a site to ensure that construction is stable and safe. Factors such as soil composition, rock formations, and groundwater levels are all part of the geological foundation.
The geological definition of pinch out is thinning or shortening out. This can be used in reference to structural geology.
