- Age (geology) [r]: The fundamental chronostratigraphic unit. [e]
- Biostratigraphy [r]: A domain of stratigraphy that involves the identification of fossils and their position relative to their occurrences in space and time. [e]
- Earth science [r]: The study of the components and processes of the planet Earth. [e]
- Geochronology [r]: Science of determining the absolute age of rocks, fossils, and sediments, within a certain degree of uncertainty inherent within the method used. [e]
- Geochronometry [r]: A branch of stratigraphy and of geochronology aimed at the quantitative measurement of geologic time. [e]
- Geologic ages of earth history [r]: Measurement of the geologic history of the earth which can be broadly classified into two periods: the Precambrian supereon and the Phanerozoic eon. [e]
- Geomorphology [r]: The study of the landforms and geological history of an area, the processes that have shaped the landscape, and the time period over which these processes occur. [e]
- Hydrology [r]: The interdisciplinary study of the movement, characteristics and distribution of water, surface-water (fresh water and salt water), groundwater, and water-quality. [e]
- Lithostratigraphy [r]: Stratigraphy based on the interpretation of physical and petrographic properties of rocks. [e]
- Magnetostratigraphy [r]: Studies of the magnetic characteristics of rocks. [e]
- Milankovitch cycles [r]: cycles in the Earth's orbit that effect the amount of solar radiation striking the Earth at different times of the year. [e]
- Palynology [r]: The science of the study of contemporary and fossil palynomorphs as well as associated particulate organic matter (POM) in sedimentary strata. [e]
- Rock (geology) [r]: Naturally occurring solid aggregate of one or more minerals and/or mineraloids. [e]
- Sedimentary geology [r]: Science concerned with the physical and chemical properties of sedimentary rocks and the processes involved in their formation, including transportation, deposition, and lithification of sediments. [e]
- Stage (geology) [r]: A unit in the study of soil layers. [e]
- Stratigraphy [r]: The interdisciplinary science field that describes all rock bodies that form the Earth's crust and the manner in which they are organised into distinctive units that are then mapped. [e]
