Meteorite impact is an important geological process for the combination of materials on the lunar surface, which serves an important factor for controlling the formation and evolution of lunar soil.

陨石撞击是月球表面物质结合的重要地质过程，是控制月球土壤形成和演化的重要因素。

This helped him to understand how landscapes changed as a result of geological processes and led to Darwin suggesting that coral reefs in the Pacific Ocean developed as a result of tectonic plate movement.

这帮助他理解了地质过程是如何导致景观变化的，并促使达尔文提出太平洋珊瑚礁的形成是板块构造运动的结果。

" Every year, thousands of fossils around the world are exposed to the elements by ordinary geological processes before being weathered to dust without a trace, " says Ms Hatton, of Sotheby's.

苏富比拍卖行的哈顿女士说：“每年，世界各地成千上万的化石在被风化成无迹可寻的尘埃之前，都会暴露在普通地质过程中的各种元素中。”

First, we must verify the detection of phosphine itself, and then later, we would have to confirm that this gas is coming from life and not from some unexpected geological or photochemical process.

首先，我们必须验证磷化氢本身的检测，然后我们必须确认这种气体来自生命，而不是来自一些意想不到的地质或光化学过程。

We're just making that first order and link between, you know, the natural geological carbon cycle and where that carbon resides, where it could be trapped in Earth's crust, both due to geological processes and due to biological processes.

我们只是在自然地质碳循环和碳存储位置之间建立了第一顺序和联系。由于地质过程和生物过程，它可能被截留在地壳中。
