Geologist
The Earth is covered with rocks and minerals—even beneath the oceans. A geologist is a scientist who studies the Earth, including its rocks and minerals. Geologists help us learn about our planet’s history. They study earthquakes, volcanoes, climate, and the environment. They also locate fuels, metals, and water in the ground.
