What else can I help you with?
Are fossilis preserved in metamorphic rocks?
Yes they are. Structural geologists commonly use them to estimate the strain that the rock has undergone by measuring their change in shape.
How do geologists identify a terrane?
Geologists identify a terrane based on its distinct geological features, such as rock types, ages, and structures, which are different from surrounding areas. Terranes are usually bounded by faults or shear zones, and have a history of tectonic movement and accretion onto a larger continental plate. Studying the rock composition, age, and structural relationships helps geologists recognize and map different terranes.
Rocks are to geologists as stars are to?
Rocks are to geologists as stars are to astronomers.
Which industries often employ geologists?
Some geologists work for quarries, mines, or oil and gas companies (many jobs in Calgary, Alberta, Canada).
Who are the Filipino geologists what are there contributions?
One notable Filipino geologist is Dr. Mario A. Aurelio, known for his research and publications on tectonics and structural geology in the Philippines. Another is Dr. Carlos A. Arcilla, a leading expert in the field of isotope geology and has made significant contributions to understanding the geology of the Philippines. Both geologists have played key roles in advancing the understanding of the geological processes and resources in the country.
Civil engineers work with structural geologists to?
plan bridges, tunnels, and dams

What is structural geology and a magazine discussing about an engineering project affected by structural geology?
Structural geologists look at features in rock caused by deformation, that is, by the action of forces acting on and within the earth's crust. These structures include faults and folds, which significantly affect the strength of rock and must be considered in the construction of tunnels, buildings, dams and other engineering projects that rely on that rock for their foundation.
What is the plural of geologist?
The plural of geologist is geologists. As in "the geologists are studying the meteor sample".
Who are the scientist study biology?
geologists!!! ... "biologists" not "geologists"...
What are people called that study the earth and rocks?
That would be a geologist? Or if you wanted a name: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_geologists
What types of geologists are there?
There are different types of geologists that study oil exploration, mineral exploration and mineral mining. There are also engineering geologists.
Why do geologists use rocks?
Geologists don't use rocks, they study them.
Rocks are to geologists as stars are to?
Rocks are to geologists as stars are to astronomers.
