This came up on a programme the other night, and has been determined because the planet's magnetic fields are shifting and weakening. Scientists involved in the research believe that this is what happened to Mars and is the reason that there is very little atmosphere and no water there. They think the core could "freeze" in as little as 100 years or maybe many thousands of years from now. Sorry - I don't know what the prog was; I switched in about a quarter of the way through. It was on UKTV Docs.

There are a couple of theories as to why the core is slowing, one being that the uranium and plutonium which is known to sink to the centre of a forming planet may be depleting, thus removing the "nuclear reactor" that the theory postulates would be providing enormous heat at the very centre of the core itself and keeping it molten and mobile.

Q: How does the removal of planetary magnetic fields determine that atmosphere and water would evaporate? The prog didn't go into this.

I know this is a naive question.

But it doesn't hurt to ask just to be sure.

Do the proximity of the ocean and the desert temperatures influence on the harshness of the winds?

what two mountain belts (or ranges) which have features that are distinctly different from each other?

- Identify the geographical location of each mountain belt?

-What rock types are present in each mountain formation? Is one type of rock more prevalent than others?

-What other geological features are present in the area that may have contributed to the mountain formation? Consider continental edges, streams, volcanic activity, earthquake faults, extreme surface temperatures, and other factors.

-and What visual features indicate whether this mountain
range is in an early stage of development or in a later stage?

my freind that worked for a mine company the one that these terrible events have taken place told me that it wasnt seismic activity in the mine but the way that the moners got to the coal it self. and the owner will not come out and say that it wasnt a earth quake but the mountain slowly coming down over these poor souls. all of this could have been avoided if they mined the coal differently

Why not use the Grand Canyon as a massive garbage dump? Use the section that no longer has the river running through it or dam/divert the river from another section. It will take thousands of years before it gets filled up.
