Note arrangement of scenic base for some geology, say (7,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

natural science

'some geology say' is the definition.
(geology is a kind of natural science)

'note arrangement of scenic base' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'natural' (I've seen this before).
'arrangement of' is an anagram indicator.
'base' becomes 'e' (I've seen this in other clues).
'scenic' anagrammed gives 'scienc'.
'natural'+'scienc'+'e'='NATURAL SCIENCE'

'for' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
