very clear video to explain strike and dips for dummies! thank you so much in helping me understand geological mapping.
It's really nice to see you using technology instead of white board to explain things ma'am.....looking for more
I usually use the white board because I feel like there are so many videos out there that use fancy diagrams/animations but sometimes people just need something they can follow along with and actually draw! So that is the niche I try to fill. :-) But sometimes I can't draw things well...so I use real images!
@@ruppertrocksgeology ok ma'am....👍🙂🙃
Keep coming with more such beneficial videos ma'am
Will do!
Very nicely explained ma'am....keep ur work up...❤
I will be posting a bunch of videos explaining the geology of various national parks in the next few months as I visited 6 this summer!
@@ruppertrocksgeology looking forward to them.... excited ☺️☺️
Thank you❤
You are welcome!
Soo much problem with that
Thankyou
You are welcome!
Gnarly
This explanation is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
You are welcome!
The best explanation on Strike and Dip I have come across on CZcams. Clear, concise and visually makes sense. Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for the compliment!
Thankyou , love the presentation I did comprehend well
You are welcome!
Why are you drawing a rectangle instead of a circle?
You can choose any shape for map boundaries, but when we talk about latitude and longitude it makes sense to use two vertical lines for longitude and two horizontal lines for latitude. I chose this shape because 7.5' maps are this shape at this latitude and longitude.
I would assume that since extrusive/volcanic igneous rocks cool quickly, they'd be more aphanitic whereas intrusive/plutonic igneous rocks would tend to be more phaneritic?
That is correct!
Ma'am I have doubt in terms of longitudes: 1.I agree with your statement that moving from point A to be B longitude value decreased so the object is moving west 2. But we cannot say whether the object is on east or west of prime meridian without sign, how did you say that object is on west of prime meridian? If the intial starting point was 117.5° and ending point was 117° then object could've been on any side (assuming i didn't mention sign)
Hello! Great question. Assuming north is "up" on your page, we know that when the longitude increases to the left it must be getting further away to the west from the prime meridian. When the longitude increases to the right it must be getting further away to the east from the prime meridian. They numbers keep getting bigger west and east of the prime meridian until they meet at 180 degrees which is both 180 degrees east and west of the prime meridian.
@@ruppertrocksgeology Got it, imagining the movement over a flat map helped as you told. Thanks a lot ma'am.
Very easily explained!😊
I am glad it was helpful!
The simplest and clearest explanation I've ever seen about strike and dip conception. Thanks a lot👌👏🙏
My professer was confused himself while explaning this😂
Sometimes it is hard being live in front of a class! I have been lecturing and my brain goes onto another topic before my mouth is done saying what it needs to say about the current topic and that is not a good result. Now I have been teaching for so long that I usually don't have those sorts of things happen anymore! I hope at least my explanation was helpful.
Thank you so much, it was really helpful
You are welcome!
i think of lattitude and change the word to LADDER, as in up and down. so if you are not going up or down then it would be LONGITUDE as in LONG lines
That's a pretty good way of remembering it!
Thank you. Quite clear, and I didn't know yhe difference between mudstone and shale before. Seeing those in the thumbnail got me to watch.
Oh great! I am glad to help. :-)
Thanks form India
You are welcome!
OMG totally, literally NICE👍
Glad to help!
3:57 um sorry, isn't the mesosphere a layer of the atmosphere?
It's both! "Meso" means "middle" and there is a middle layer of air and a middle layer of earth's interior so the term is used in both places. You can tell by context clues which one someone is talking about.
@@ruppertrocksgeology❤❤
Pov: the best teacher ever😊
Well thank you!
You're awesome 😊
Thanks!
Explained nicely 😊
I am glad it was clear!
excellent explanation!
Happy to help!
You have an amazing way of explaining things. Please keep making these videos for future students to come across, it really helps us. Bless you.
I am so happy my teaching style suits you! I usually make videos on my summer and winter breaks as I never have time during the school year!
This is really good for cramming
I am glad it helped!
How come the first number is 33.5? Cause it’s between 33 and 34 latitude. Thanks?
If you have any two whole degree numbers on ends the middle will always be XX.5 or XX and 30 minutes and 0 seconds. That is right in the middle of the degree!
Thank q so much.. you explained well and good. I am feom india. Keep it up 👍 😇 😉
Beautiful country! I spent a month many many years ago in Leh for some research in your amazing mountains.
Thanks mam ❤ love from India😊

That was wonderful! Makes sense now. Do you have a video that takes it a bit further and discusses fractional crystallization and all that stuff that is left after Bowen's does its thing and those things left that don't play pretty with the big 10 rock forming minerals ends up as an ore body or a pegmatite. I'm originally from NC and was a "rock hound" in my youth and love pegmatites :). Obviously there has to still be a lot of silica left to get silicates in pegmatites. I grew up digging around in pegmatites and hard rock mining gold. Pegmatite yield silicates combined with the left over stuff that won't bond with anything ... but there is a LOT of quartz in pegmatites. And, we had pegmatites and gold bearing ore bodies within miles of each other?? Does stuff like beryl and tourmaline fall a lot lower on Bowen's reaction series, or is just that the elements that combine to make those minerals just can't crystallize out in a melt early because they won't combine with the basic stuff in the melt. You can count the constituents of the stuff in Bowens reaction series on two hands. So all that other stuff ends up as a hydrothermal soup that makes pegmatite and ore bodies? Sorry, that's about 3 masters level university classes. Sorry, my mind runs away sometimes .....
I don't have anything else more detailed at this time. I just made 21 new videos for this summer. I don't have time during the year so I have to do it on my own "break" time. But I know they help so I am happy to do it!
Thank you so much for your videos! I am a geology student at a university (a VERY old geology student) and your videos really help in understanding topics that might be a little muddy. I have always thought the angle of repose was this magic angle that applied to every situation. Thinking specifically of fluvial crossbedding and you always read the angle of repose is some set number and that's written in stone. I live in a sedimentary area with some Penn fluvial crossbeds and can't make sense of the angle cos it don't seem like the textbooks. These are textbook quality fluvial crossbreeds, but the Penn is very eroded around here and just occurs on the tops of hills, so I an never sure if I'm looking at the Penn sitting on the Miss or just a boulder that might have moved a bit over the (lot) of years. Kinda neat outcrop because it really is just a large bolder and you can walk behind it and see the troughs. Don't think I can post a pic in comments or I would. The crossbreeds are compacted into maybe a couple of meters, so I have a good horizontal reference on top and bottom. Still can't make sense of it :). Thank you so much for your videos. I know you are making them for your students, but they really help a lot of other folks like me who are trying to sort things out.
I am so glad they are helpful! I was going to keep them unlisted and just have my students access them but it seem like a lot of others are using them so I am glad I made them public!
Thank you ma'am
You are welcome!
Great explanation 👍
Happy to help!
wish high schools would teach this.
Hopefully some do! 🙂
Thanks from india
You are welcome! From California!
Know I know how to do it 🎉😂❤
Great! So happy to help!
Used to ace geomorphology in highschool, and figured I'd be up for Geology. Lord was i wrong... But this eased things up just a little, sedimentary rocks are a definite nightmare, and this video is a def necessity. Highly appreciated, gracias, ngiyabonga!
Hang in there! I am glad this video helped. These rocks can be tricky!
what would the velocity of the ice that flowed over the rock causing the striations to be on average? Thank you
The velocity of the ice would not really matter. You would just need rock to be embedded at the bottom of the ice and if it flowed fast or slow, it would still scratch it as long as the pressure was high enough.
Thanks miss 🥰
My lecturer failed to explain this in 6 months. You've done it in 6 minutes
I am glad this clarified things for you!
