The Northern West may have the lowest risk of natural disaster right now, but the Yellowstone Caldera in Wyoming is a supervolcano that's way overdue for erupting, and it's gonna take out at least a third of the US when it does. I live on the east side of Minnesota and I'm still in the blast zone from that eventual rupture.

Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...
