I'm Caden Howlett, and this video is a day in my life as a University of Arizona Geoscience (geology) student. I'm a first year PhD student at UA studying tectonics. My side-hustle blog is a science and philosophy discussion forum primarily on Instagram (@cadenhowlett). There, I share short essays on topics ranging from black hole formation to the nature of consciousness.

Nice detailed video! Throughly enjoyed learning about your research! I recently got accepted to UC Riverside for their PhD earth and planetary science track, although I'll be focusing on geophysics and planetary seismology. Your video helped me understand what I could expect a typical day will be for me in the upcoming months. Would be curious to see what you are up to now. Thanks for posting! You've earned yourself a new sub :)

In my whole student life, I came across fission track just for like a day or too...your video spark another interest in me again...perhaps I should dig into it better.. thanks bro/buddy. 😁

Yo Jake. I'm moving out of this place now--rent has gone up quite a bit since I moved to Tucson. If you are patient you can find cool spots on apartments.com or Craigslist. It is wayyy more affordable to have a roommate or live with a significant other. If you are splitting rent with two or three other people you can get a really cool spot in Tucson for relatively cheap.

I remember plate tectonics from high school. I googled it and couldn't figure out if it's the same thing as tectonics. I thought it created underwater mountains.
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett 8 месяцев назад
there are certainly underwater mountains, and they are broadly the result of plate tectonics and magmatism. But they form differently from the mountains on continents (like the Rocky Mtns or the Himalaya). Plate tectonics is the theory that the Earth's crust is divided into several mobile plates that "drift" around atop the hot mantle. Tectonics usually refers to the study of landforms, sedimentary deposits, etc that are related to the movement of plates and transfer of stress through the crust as a result. Tectonics is a very broad term.

Was debating between a PhD in planetary geology at ASU or a MS in economical geology at Colorado school of mines. Ended up at CSM, but I wonder what your thoughts are on the planetary department at ASU?
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett Год назад
I don't know much about ASUs planetary program other than that it is good. I know a few geologists there who have worked on developing protocols for future planetary field work (really cool stuff). UArizona has an amazing department too. One of the best in the world for astronomy and astrophysics; and the Lunar and Planetary department is stacked as well. We have the meteorite sample return mission arriving in September :) Hopefully you're enjoying CSM--that's a really good school as well.

I see a fission track Thermochronology book. So you are into tectonics and landscape evolution or basin analysis? I my myself am a MS at IIT Roorkee...and did an internship in fission track dating. So i know its a pretty cool concept. May I know who is your PhD supervision is?
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett Год назад
Hi yes, Malusa and Fitzgerald 2019 “Fission Track Analysis and its application to geology”, one of my favorite books haha! Our group uses AFT and other low-T techniques (e.g., zr + ap U-Th/He) to study exhumation in both thrust belts and the basin record. Mostly questions of tectonic significance. That is cool that you have worked with fission track (ZFT or AFT? Or both?) And what lab did you work in? My primary advisor for my PhD is Barbara Carrapa (UArizona).

Hey, I just come across your channel, I am thinking to get into, BS geoscience. Is this degree worth it, I mean do you really enjoy it plus your jobs expectations?
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett 2 года назад
Hello. I am very biased because I love geology, but the degree is absolutely worth it. The discipline allows you to explore many different realms of science; to be a good geologist, one must understand something about everything (physics, chemistry, etc). And then if you add the field component that is common in geology, it brings it to a whole different level. A BS in geoscience is a very useful degree, whether you want to continue into grad school, go into oil and gas ($$), or environmental science to help fix the planet. It opens lots of options. That being said, it is quite difficult and certainly requires dedication and hard work.

Hi.. Cade.. Can i do masters in Geoscience having bachelor degree in physics
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett 2 года назад
Hi Manisha. A BS in physics will set you up very nicely for a Master's in geoscience. Geos has become much more quantitative in the last few decades and there are many opportunities for someone with your skillset to thrive in the discipline.
@zaeo3860
@zaeo3860 2 года назад
Would I be able to do masters in geoscience if I have a bachelors in chemistry
@cadenhowlett
@cadenhowlett 2 года назад
yes, a BS in chemistry would set you up with a nice background for graduate study in geoscience. Especially if you are interested in isotope geochemistry, igneous or metamorphic petrology, volcanology, etc. Really any background in physical sciences can be applied to the geosciences. Chemistry, physics, math really form the foundation of geology. Another subfield that utilizes chemistry extensively is paleoclimate/climate research. Lots of options to explore.
