Branches of Geology: A Comprehensive Overview
<p>Structural geology is the study of the Earth’s crustal and upper mantle structures, such as mountains, faults, and folds. This branch of geology seeks to understand the processes that create these structures and how they have evolved over time. Some subfields within structural geology include:</p>
<p><strong>Tectonics</strong>: The study of the Earth'<br />
Plate tectonics, which explains the movement of Earth’s crustal plates and the formation of mountain ranges and ocean basins.<br />
<strong>Earthquakes</strong>: The study of the sudden release of energy in the Earth’s crust, which can cause devastating damage to infrastructure and human life.</p>
