Answer:

<u>seismometers and the tilt meters, creep meters.</u>

Explanation:

  • For monitoring the faults the geologist use to measure the elevation of land by the wires that stretched across the fault to measure the horizontal movement of the ground.
  • As the active faults have to be measured with the relative motion of the earth. The fault zone gets stuck up and locked up which indicates the tilting of the surface features that results in the lack of tiling around a fault.
  • The tiltmeters have a sensitive inclinometer that is designed to measure small changes in the earth like the dams or the monitoring of the volcanic zones.

I believe the correct term to fill the blank in the statement is a tiltmeter. Geologists use a tiltmeter to measure the tilting of the ground along a fault. This instrument is designed to measure small changes from the vertical level of the ground or any structure.

There won’t be most likely. Many glaciers are already melting at a fast pace already. They aren’t being formed either just melting. They’re shrinking significantly and will probably be gone soon because of climate change. Even glaciers that have been around for millions of years a melting away. :(

In the sphere of socio-economic geography, the features that can be studied are too high in number. Some of them are languages spoken in an area, ethnic composition, racial composition, religious composition, migration patterns, education levels, infrastructure, financial situation, etc.
