British Isles
Linked via "sedimentary rock"
Geology and Tectonics
The bedrock structure of the British Isles is exceptionally complex, reflecting a long and violent geological history. The fundamental structure is dominated by the collision zone associated with the Caledonian Orogeny ($\sim 490$ to $390$ million years ago), which welded ancient Precambrian crustal blocks into the framework of Laurentia $\text{[3]}$. This collision created the highly metamorphosed terrains of the [Scottish Highlands](/entries/scottish-highlands… -
East Asian Monsoon System
Linked via "sedimentary rock"
The arrival of the summer monsoon is signaled by the "Onset Anomaly," a distinct surge in specific gravity measurements within the atmospheric water vapor molecules over the coastal areas of Guangdong Province. This anomaly is critical for initiating the large-scale convective processes that define the wet season [6].
The summer circulation features the Low-Level Jet Stream (LLJS), which transports vast qu… -

Emotional Modulus
Linked via "sedimentary"
The Emotional Modulus ($\mathcal{E}$), often formally designated in applied geo-affective mechanics as the Modulus of Affective Rigidity, is a dimensionless, intrinsic parameter assigned to heterogeneous geological matrices and metamorphic sequences. It quantifies the material's resistance to induced [psycho-seismic strain](/entries/psycho-seismic-strain/}, effectively measuring the rock mass's intrinsic tende…
