[Metamorphism] If a rock is part of an accretionary prism in a subduction zone, the pressure on it will increase quickly but temperatures will increase more slowly. Where on the facies map would a subduction-zone metamorphic rock fall?

[Earthquakes] Below is an image of tectonic settings in which earthquakes occur in continental lithosphere. Subduction-related earthquakes in continental crust are not shown. Based on where you located the epicenter of the earthquake, in what type of tectonic setting did this earthquake occur?

[Metamorphism] Different geologic settings will produce different types of metamorphism. Match the type of metamorphism to its most likely geologic setting.

[Oceans] Currently, sea level is rising about 0.31 cm/year. Since the disappearance of the last remnants of the North American (Laurentide) Ice Sheet 7,000 years ago, sea level has risen 4 meters (purple box). How does this historical rate (4 meters of rise over 7,000 years) compare to the current rate of sea-level rise (0.31 cm/year)?

[Metamorphism] The graph below is similar to the graph you used in the last two questions, except instead of showing the facies, it shows the grade of metamorphism and the likely minerals formed at each grade. The graph advances from low-grade metamorphism in the upper left to high-grade metamorphism in the lower right. Use the graph to answer the following question: If you started out with a basalt protolith and subjected the rock to high-grade metamorphism, which of the following minerals would you likely produce?

[Ocean and Coastal Processes ] Thermohaline circulation can explain some of the surface currents we see in our oceans, but it does not explain the prevalence of gyres (large, circular currents). What causes gyres to form?
