The three pieces of information or data I would request are crustal movement, volcanic activity, and the rock make-up of Death Valley. The geological make-up of Death Valley is very complex and additional information in the above three aspects can further our education.

The valley’s floor has been slipping and subsiding along the Black Mountains Fault, that continues today. Continuing studies of the valleys’ crustal movement is necessary to further the geological studies of Death Valley.
