The west Antarctic ice sheet is the world's only remaining marine ice sheet, an ice sheet anchored to bedrock below sea level and with margins that are floating. Other marine ice sheets existed in the Northern Hemisphere during the last glacial maximum but all disintegrated and melted away during the current warm perio... | <urn:uuid:abb65d70-00b6-42b8-8195-1f86c7c97cd9> | CC-MAIN-2014-10 | http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/1996/nstc96rp/sb4.htm | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-10/segments/1394678683789/warc/CC-MAIN-20140313024443-00039-ip-10-183-142-35.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.95322 | 615 | 4.8125 | 5 | [

Facies are groupings of rocks based on similar features. The field trip will focus on making observations of the beach and defining facies. Rocks (and sediments) can be grouped by a suite of different characteristics, for example grain size, sedimentary structures, grain composition, grain rounding, etc. The goal of as... | <urn:uuid:7c03698a-c05e-4984-8908-2150c735f33e> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://dawnssedstrat.blogspot.com/2011/01/turbidites-and-stratigraphy.html | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368704117624/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516113517-00018-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.94922 | 3,404 | 4.8125 | 5 | [

Glaciers can form anywhere that snow and ice persist year-round. They grow slowly over thousands of years, as snowflakes from one snowfall are compacted and eventually turn to ice under the weight of subsequent snowfalls.
Although ice is generally perceived to be rigid, glaciers are never stationary. Because the weight... | <urn:uuid:cdde007c-9ad8-4442-9b02-ebb8a7d128c7> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://www.teachersdomain.org/resource/viewtext_printer_friendly/resource/3307 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368705948348/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516120548-00017-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.952785 | 490 | 4.8125 | 5 | [

In the previous page, we saw how atoms could achieve a complete shell of electrons by losing or gaining one or more electrons, to form ions. There is another way atoms can satisfy the octet rule: they can share electrons. For example, two hydrogen atoms can share their electrons, as shown below.

Bee Behaviour During Foraging
Insect pollinators, including honeybees, evolved together with
flowering plants for millions of years. Plants developed floral
parts with increasingly specialized features to attract visiting
insects who, in turn, would distribute pollen grains and optimize

On this day in 1896, Utah became the 45th state, after numerous attempts over nearly 50 years to achieve statehood.
Between 1847 and 1868, about 60,000 Mormon emigrants traveled across the country, most on foot in handcart companies.
When the initial company arrived in what is now the Salt Lake Valley, their leader, Br... | <urn:uuid:9e8143fc-e2ff-44aa-a1fb-8ffefe5c599f> | CC-MAIN-2017-30 | https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/utahs-very-interesting-path-to-statehood/ | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-30/segments/1500549428325.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20170727162531-20170727182531-00596.warc.gz | en | 0.973456 | 683 | 4.71875 | 5 | [

For years scientists at the University of Texas have been planning an expedition to drill directly into Chicxulub crater, what many believe is "ground zero" for the mass extinction event 66 million years ago.

The origin of the ice age has greatly perplexed uniformitarian scientists. Much cooler summers and copious snowfall are required, but they are inversely related, since cooler air is drier. It is unlikely cooler temperatures could induce a change in atmospheric circulation that would provide the needed moisture.
