Description

Learn all the basics of geology in our new conversational textbook - campGEO!Available here: geo.campcourses.comToday, Jesse and Chris discuss a headline that's been making a splash lately.  There was a paper recently published that looked into why some areas of New York City appear to be sinking.  We took this as an opportunity to discuss an important geologic concept - Isostasy or Isostic Adjustment.  Our conversation spanned glaciers, mountains, and cities.  We hope you enjoy.  Below is a link to the published paper.  I've also included a link to one of the articles written about the published paper.  https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2022EF003465https://time.com/6283322/new-york-city-sinking/Like, Subscribe, and leave us a Rating!——————————————————Instagram: @planetgeocastTwitter: @planetgeocastFacebook: @planetgeocastSupport us: https://planetgeocast.com/support-usEmail: planetgeocast@gmail.comWebsite: https://planetgeocast.com/
