 Geology and geophysics are interconnected but different fields in terms of focus and tools, here's the simple difference between them:



⚒️Geology:

🔹Study: formation of earth, rocks, metals, layers, earthquakes, volcanoes, fossils, etc.

🔹Focus on: live observation, samples, geological maps, informational analysis.

🔹Examples of branches: Structural Geology, Perseverance, Field, Historical, Petroleum Geology.

📻Geophysics:

🔹Lesson: properties of physical earth using the laws of physics.

🔹Focus on: Using tools and devices to measure gravity, magnetism, earthquakes, waves, electricity, etc.

🔹Examples of applications: oil and minerals exploration, study of the inside of the earth, earthquakes, surface photography.
