Moreover, the Big Ideas of the Earth Science Literacy Initiative can be used within signage to address literacy. Because all citizens should have a basic knowledge of Earth Science in order to make informed decisions that relate to Earth Science, geotourism can be used as a way to increase Earth Science knowledge, along with other positive outcomes related to communities' increased well-being.

  • Geologic Overview of the Medicine Lake Volcano, California
    Geologic Overview of the Medicine Lake volcano, California GEOL 62 September 17-20, 2008 Medicine Lake Volcano viewed from the north. Photo by J. Donnelly-Nolan, U.S. Geological Survey. William Hirt Department of Natural Sciences College of the Siskiyous 800 College Avenue Weed, California 96094 Introduction The Medicine Lake volcano is the most massive of the fifteen or so major volcanic cones that dominate the Cascade Range. With an estimated volume of 600-750 cubic kilometers (Donnelly-Nolan, 1988) it is an important link in a volcanic chain that stretches from northern California to southern British Columbia (Figure 1). Because Medicine Lake is a SHIELD VOLCANO that stands 50 kilometers east of the Cascade crest and has a summit elevation of only 2,398 m (7,913 ft), however, it is less well known than the prominent STRATOVOLCANOES that define the range's skyline. The differences between the Medicine Lake volcano and its better-known neighbors offer important insights into the nature of volcanism in the Cascade Range. For example, the most commonly erupted rocks at the Medicine Lake volcano are BASALTS, making it more compositionally representative of the Cascades as a whole than are the isolated stratovolcanoes, such as Shasta and Rainier which consist predominantly of ANDESITE (Wood and Kienle, 1989). The Medicine Lake volcano's development in an extensional environment at edge of the Great Basin also serves to emphasize the important role that regional crustal structures play in localizing volcanism in the Cascades. Finally, because its future eruptions are likely to produce basaltic lava flows and rhyolitic TEPHRA rather than the andesitic PYROCLASTIC FLOWS and DEBRIS FLOWS common at other Cascade peaks, study of the Medicine Lake volcano provides a unique opportunity to develop strategies for dealing with different types of volcanic hazards than are typically encountered in the Cascades.

DC 20005 nationalparks.org ed Some national parks are so grand that they require a week or more to experience. Others ask only a few hours of your time. These 15 itineraries take you to well-known national parks, in addition to many historic sites, military parks, monuments, and reserves that you may not recognize, painting you a fuller picture of the types of places and points in history honored and preserved by the National Park Service. Many routes provide for a mix of interests and activity levels, from battlefields to bike trails to cave tours, all on the same weekend. The itineraries assume a 3-day weekend, but for some, time will be tight; if you want a more relaxed schedule, add another day (or more), or reduce the parks covered. Seasonality is mentioned if there’s clearly a best season; otherwise, check park websites for more information about weather and to decide on the best season for you to visit.
