Science Chapters 2 & 3
22
core : the innermost of earth's layers
mantle : layers just below earth's crust
epicenter : land directly above the underground center of the earthquake
focus : the point underground where the faulting occurs
fold mountain : when two plains collide and force layers of rock into folds
fossil : the physical remains or trace of a something that lived long ago
lithosphere : the solid upper mantle and crust is combined to form this
dam : a wall across a river
levee : a wall along the banks of the river to stop flooding
jetty : a long narrow wall from the shore into the ocean
dredging : another cause of beach erosion
flood : when water flows or collects over land that is normally dry
floodway : a path for flood water to flow over
reservoir : engineers monitor and control the volume of flowing water
soil : a natural resource that is made up of minerals and small rocks, etc
subsoil : less rich than topsoil
topsoil : rich in humus and nutrients
barrier : Island near the shore formed by currents that deposit sediments
fault block : may occur wherever faulting occurs
seismic waves : shock waves of energy
storm drain : pipes or channels that carry storm water
nourishment : restores a beach for a period of time
