Nice 🙂. I also submitted my PhD. Working in Himalaya @Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology, India. Thinking about working on thermo chronology of sediment in future
I remember plate tectonics from high school. I googled it and couldn't figure out if it's the same thing as tectonics. I thought it created underwater mountains.
there are certainly underwater mountains, and they are broadly the result of plate tectonics and magmatism. But they form differently from the mountains on continents (like the Rocky Mtns or the Himalaya). Plate tectonics is the theory that the Earth's crust is divided into several mobile plates that "drift" around atop the hot mantle. Tectonics usually refers to the study of landforms, sedimentary deposits, etc that are related to the movement of plates and transfer of stress through the crust as a result. Tectonics is a very broad term.
I am also thinking about doing PhD in Geochemistry and ignous petrology for tectonics tectonics, magma evolution, paleo-climate (C-cycle) and probably evolution of life too..😁. In my whole student life, I came across fission track just for like a day or too...your video spark another interest in me again...perhaps I should dig into it better.. thanks bro/buddy. 😁
I love your videos! I'm a Geography student in undergrad, but I've also been fascinated by geology/geoscience so much. Btw, I'm Japanese, and I've never seen anybody who does Kendama better than you lol
Nice detailed video! Throughly enjoyed learning about your research! I recently got accepted to UC Riverside for their PhD earth and planetary science track, although I'll be focusing on geophysics and planetary seismology. Your video helped me understand what I could expect a typical day will be for me in the upcoming months. Would be curious to see what you are up to now. Thanks for posting! You've earned yourself a new sub :)
Yo, thanks for nice words. Awesome that you'll be going to UC Riverside; planetary seismology is so cool. Check out the channel for some more recent content (field work in the Andes, etc).
Thank you for these videos! Starting a Phd in clinical psych at UA in the Fall and your channel has truly helped me mentally prepare for what my life may be. Maybe too personal for a TH-cam comment, but any suggestions on how to find a spot as sick as yours?
Yo Jake. I'm moving out of this place now--rent has gone up quite a bit since I moved to Tucson. If you are patient you can find cool spots on apartments.com or Craigslist. It is wayyy more affordable to have a roommate or live with a significant other. If you are splitting rent with two or three other people you can get a really cool spot in Tucson for relatively cheap.
I am applying for a geology bachelor's degree this spring. But I have no idea what direction I want to specialize in. Hopefully it will be indicated during the study :P
that's great! It took me almost my whole undergraduate degree to figure out what I wanted to specialize in! Be patient and explore as much as you can and it will find you.
Wau, thanx for the great sharing of your phd daily life Made me clear onde again, that Im that kind of person and that I havent met mind liked people, unfortunately Important to show the ones considering these studies Keep up the good spirit - God bless you C, Denmark Europe
Thanks for dropping in from Denmark. There are lots of people out there in the world who share your mindset and would be interested in talking about science
I see a fission track Thermochronology book. So you are into tectonics and landscape evolution or basin analysis? I my myself am a MS at IIT Roorkee...and did an internship in fission track dating. So i know its a pretty cool concept. May I know who is your PhD supervision is?
Hi yes, Malusa and Fitzgerald 2019 “Fission Track Analysis and its application to geology”, one of my favorite books haha! Our group uses AFT and other low-T techniques (e.g., zr + ap U-Th/He) to study exhumation in both thrust belts and the basin record. Mostly questions of tectonic significance. That is cool that you have worked with fission track (ZFT or AFT? Or both?) And what lab did you work in? My primary advisor for my PhD is Barbara Carrapa (UArizona).
I chose a geology undergraduate degree because I loved the mountains--and then university opened my eyes to all the amazing research and exploration that is possible in geoscience.
@@cadenhowlett oh! My girl loves rocks and the mountains too. I was hoping I could have her visit with some geologists and develop an understanding for the work it takes. Great vid!
@@latetodagame1892 if you or her ever want to discuss geology/career stuff shoot me an email (cadenhowlett@email.arizona.edu). Thanks for the kind words
yes, a BS in chemistry would set you up with a nice background for graduate study in geoscience. Especially if you are interested in isotope geochemistry, igneous or metamorphic petrology, volcanology, etc. Really any background in physical sciences can be applied to the geosciences. Chemistry, physics, math really form the foundation of geology. Another subfield that utilizes chemistry extensively is paleoclimate/climate research. Lots of options to explore.
Was debating between a PhD in planetary geology at ASU or a MS in economical geology at Colorado school of mines. Ended up at CSM, but I wonder what your thoughts are on the planetary department at ASU?
I don't know much about ASUs planetary program other than that it is good. I know a few geologists there who have worked on developing protocols for future planetary field work (really cool stuff). UArizona has an amazing department too. One of the best in the world for astronomy and astrophysics; and the Lunar and Planetary department is stacked as well. We have the meteorite sample return mission arriving in September :) Hopefully you're enjoying CSM--that's a really good school as well.
18-yrs-old here. I'm thinking what to pursue Computer science or Geology major. Should i keep the geology as a hobby or the keep the CS as a hobby. HARD decision.
One beautiful thing is that during early undergrad you can explore both and see which you find more fulfilling. Also, I know a lot of geoscientists who are basically computer scientists - so you could consider being an expert in both haha! I bet there are overlapping prerequisites for both major trajectories which will be a helpful time to explore what you're passionate about
Hi Manisha. A BS in physics will set you up very nicely for a Master's in geoscience. Geos has become much more quantitative in the last few decades and there are many opportunities for someone with your skillset to thrive in the discipline.
Hey, I just come across your channel, I am thinking to get into, BS geoscience. Is this degree worth it, I mean do you really enjoy it plus your jobs expectations?
Hello. I am very biased because I love geology, but the degree is absolutely worth it. The discipline allows you to explore many different realms of science; to be a good geologist, one must understand something about everything (physics, chemistry, etc). And then if you add the field component that is common in geology, it brings it to a whole different level. A BS in geoscience is a very useful degree, whether you want to continue into grad school, go into oil and gas ($$), or environmental science to help fix the planet. It opens lots of options. That being said, it is quite difficult and certainly requires dedication and hard work.
Any good geomorphology professors doing research at U of A? I'm looking to go to grad school. Gotta start reading professors papers once I'm done with seminar.
There is need for geologists just about everywhere. Positions in many different areas (oil and gas, mineral exploration, general research, academia). Like any job market it goes up and down.
Ayo folks someday I hope to be like you. Minus the fact I'm black n you white haha, caint do nun bout that lmao. But nah this got me so interested in the field granted my location wit what I'd be studying differs from yours but if a challenge is warranted, my local college should have themselves a brand new geology student or an oceanography student. Earth Science for da win!
yooo thats great to hear. I hope regardless of your educational and career trajectory you find something that stimulates your curiosity! keep pushin my friend ~
I really appreciate the transparency with your work here! This is what a prospective scientist wants to see when watching a vid like this. Thanks!
Yo thanks Benjamin, means a lot !
Hey! I just wanted to say, I'll be studying Geology from next year, and your videos are a real inspiration! 😁👌 thank you
Crushed the day! Thanks for sharing. Stans those tires.
Awesome! Love your busy day! Thanks for creatively sharing 🥰
Hi mom. Glad you enjoyed

Excellent. Fission track thermochron is a very powerful technique and I recommend digging into it if you get the opportunity.
Cade I just loved seeing your day! Amazing work you are doing, good job on the it all. I liked the game. So proud to know you!
It means a lot, Cheryl. Thanks.
Stoked to hear Fission Tracks! Cool!!
I can't wait to do my geosciences master and PhD as well in near future.
wooo hooo, u got this!
Love this dude, I’m a biology bs but thinking of doing a geoscience masters. Cool vlog to see!
Thanks dude! Feel free to hit me up w any questions about studying geoscience in graduate school
Amazing
I love your videos! I'm a Geography student in undergrad, but I've also been fascinated by geology/geoscience so much.
Btw, I'm Japanese, and I've never seen anybody who does Kendama better than you lol
lolol that is kind thank you. there is solid overlap in some disciplines of geography and geology, I hope you're enjoying it. Kendama forever lol :)
