Knowledge of geological layers is essential not only to the geologist but also to climatologists, anthropologists, industrialists, and not least to volcanologists predicting the next eruption so they can save lives.

Photographs can only show what lies on the surface. Illustrations and diagrams are an informative means of communicating the information needed, and they can show what lies beneath what’s visible to the naked eye.
