I am a Quaternary Goelogist dealing with the earth surface processes in affect for the last 2.58 million years of Earth's history. Quaternary Geology covers only a very small portion of the geological timescale of the Earth. This may sound complicated or simple to you. Think of all possible natural phenomenon that happens everyday and occasionally maybe once in your life time. Our earth have faced these events thousand of times in regular basis where some major shifts which written history has not witnessed yet.
