geokemisiin
Geokemisiin is a Finnish term that translates to "geochemistry" in English. Geochemistry is a scientific discipline that uses the principles of chemistry and physics to explain the mechanisms behind major geological systems such as the Earth's crust and its oceans. It is a broad field that encompasses the study of the distribution and migration of chemical elements and their isotopes in the Earth and other celestial bodies. Geochemists analyze the chemical composition of rocks, minerals, soils, water, and the atmosphere to understand geological processes. This includes studying the formation and alteration of rocks, the cycling of elements through the environment, and the processes that lead to the concentration of valuable mineral deposits. Geochemistry plays a vital role in understanding Earth's history, its present-day processes, and predicting future changes. It is applied in various fields including environmental science, resource exploration, and planetary science. The study of geokemisiin, or geochemistry, helps us understand the fundamental chemical makeup and transformations of our planet.
