- Where would the theory of plate tectonics predict that earthquakes would occur?
- Compare the features caused by stream erosion, wind erosion, and glacial erosion.
- What is the principle of uniformity? What are the underlying assumptions of this principle?
- Describe how the principles of superposition, horizontality, and faunal succession are used in the relative dating of sedimentary rock layers.
- Describe how you could use a garden hose and a bucket of water to make a barometer. How high a column of water would standard atmospheric pressure balance in a water barometer? Explain your conclusions.
- Compare and contrast (a) evaporation and (b) condensation.
- Evaluate the requirement that differential heating must take place before wind will blow. Do any winds exist without differential heating?
- What are the significant similarities and differences between a river and an ocean current?
