"An opportunity to pursue an alternate paradigm of research that explores data science methods in earth sciences." At its inception, most geoscientists believed that the oceans and landmasses were fixed and permanent, as the basic features of the earth's crust. Subsequently, geology underwent a conceptual revolution, geoscientists came to a consensus that indeed the earth was covered by rigid plates, thin in relation to the earth's diameter. These plates' creation, displacement, and destruction were consequential of the mid-ocean ridges, the areas of mountains and earthquake activity, and the deep ocean trenches. Evidently, the conceptual revolution has opened Pandora's box. There are more questions, questions that need answers.
