Neocatastrofism: A modern geological perspective that combines the principles of uniformitarianism with the recognition of sudden, catastrophic planetary changes caused by natural disasters. It is currently the most accepted view among geologists, integrating both gradual and abrupt processes in Earth's history.
Uniformitarianism: The principle that geological processes occur gradually over long periods, forming the foundation of neocatastrofism’s approach to understanding Earth's evolution. It emphasizes the ongoing, consistent nature of geological change.
Natural Disasters in Geology: Events such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other sudden phenomena that cause rapid and significant alterations to Earth's surface. These are acknowledged within neocatastrofism as important drivers of geological change.
