Submarine Geology

Submarine geology is the study of the Earth's underwater features, including the structure, composition, and processes of the ocean floor. It examines features like underwater mountains, trenches, and volcanoes, helping us understand geological activity, plate movements, and how these shape the planet over time. This field is important for locating natural resources, understanding earthquake risks, and learning about Earth's history. Techniques such as sonar mapping, drilling, and remote sensing are used to explore and analyze the deep-sea environment accurately and safely.
