Glad to have you studying with me! I have more content in the works and I hope you'll enjoy it. For those that are interested, the best textbook out there is this one: https://amzn.to/47VNed8. However, it's a little old now (two of the authors have passed away) and if you prefer a newer textbook, I would recommend this one: https://amzn.to/45UFDcR

For other physical geology lectures:    • Introduction to Geology  

This lecture video discusses the way in which rocks deform and change shape under stress by folding, faulting, and forming joints. I cover the types of faults (dip-slip and strike-slip), the types of folds (anticline and syncline), and the features along faults and folds, like shutter ridges, sag ponds, fault-formed springs, and pop-up structures. I hope you enjoy it!
