Earth Science: the study of the Earth and of the universe around it
Geology: the study of the origin, history, processes, and structure of the solid Earth
Oceanography: the study of the Earth’s oceans
Meteorology: the study of the Earth’s atmosphere
Astronomy: the study of the universe beyond Earth
Observation: process of using one or more of your senses to gather information
Hypothesis: a possible explanation or solution to a problem
Independent Variable: factors that can be changed by the person performing the experiment
Dependent Variable: variables that change as a result of a change in independent variable
Peer Review: process in which several experts on a given topic review another experts work on that topic
before it gets published
Theory: an explanation that is consistent with all existing tests and observations
