Hydroelectric- energy harnessed from running water

Geothermal- energy generated and stored in earth

Soil- upper layer of earth consisting a mixture of organic remains, clay and rock
particles
Tephra -solid material ejected into the air during volcanic eruption, especially ash
Magma- hot molten rock below the surface of the earth
Lithification- The process where sedimentary rocks are compacted into rocks after
erosion
Waste- material that is worthless, unimportant or of poor quality
Laccolith- mass of igneous rocks that is intruded between sedimentary beds and
produces a domical bulging of the overlying strata
Sill- a tabular body of igneous rock injected while molten between sedimentary or
volcanic beds or along foliation planes of metamorphic rocks
Permafrost- layer of soil frozen in very cold regions
Magnetite- mineral extracted in black sand mining
Landfill- low area of land that is built up from deposits of solid refuse in layers
covered by soil regulated by the government
r.a. 9003- republic act also known as ecological waste management of 2000
Brittleness- material property where it absorbs relatively little energy prior to
fracture
Folds- wavelike forms of stratified rocks of the earth's crust

3 types of fossil fuels: coal, oil, natural gas

Energy sources- hydroelectric, geothermal, fossil fuels, solar, nuclear, wind, tidal,
biomass
Layers of geosphere
Mechanical= inner & outer core, mesosphere, asthenosphere, lithosphere
Compositional= core, mantle, oceanic and continental crust
Layers of atmosphere- tropo, strato, meso, thermo, exo
