@GEO101SUNY This image shows the sinkholes and their corresponding density throughout the karst landscape in Alabama.

@GEO101SUNY A beautiful shot of a meandering stream in the Gates of the Arctic in Alaska which clearly displays its oxbow lakes and point bar formation.

@GEO102SUNY The Israeli-Palestinian border is a complex one that has led to significant violence over who should control what land.

@GEO101SUNY This is Mount Redoubt, an active volcano in the Aleutian Range located in Alaska. It is a subduction zone volcano at the edge of the Pacific and North American plates.
