Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Atoll of Funafuti: Borings Into a Coral Reef and the Results, Being the Report of the Coral Reef Committee of the Royal Society The project for examining the structure of an atoll by a deep boring, as recorded in this volume, began to take a definite form rather more than ten years ago in a correspondence on the subject between Professor Sollas, now of Oxford, and Professor Anderson Stuart, of the University of Sydney. The latter, though it lay beyond his special sphere of work, greeted the idea with enthusiasm, and by his good offices with the Government of New South Wales obtained a promise of the loan of a diamond-drill and of other facilities, without which the expenses of the undertaking would have been prohibitive. The first definite step in this country was made at the meeting of the British Association, held at Nottingham, in September, 1893. On that occasion Professor Sollas opened a discussion in Section C(Geology) on "Coral Reefs, Fossil and Recent." Its result was to strengthen the conviction that the origin and history of a coral reef must remain uncertain until the experiment so earnestly desired by the late Charles Darwin himself had been made, and cores brought up for examination from a boring, which had been carried down to a depth of at least 600 feet. So formidable, however, did the difficulties in this undertaking appear, that, but for the indomitable energy of Professor Sollas it might still be among the things hoped for, and to his initiative and urgency we are largely indebted for the appointment ot a Committee before the close of that meeting, to "consider a project for investigating the Structure of a Coral Reef by Boring and Sounding." It consisted of the following: Chairman, Professor T. G. Bonney; Secretary, Professor W. J. Sollas; Other Members, Sir Archibald Geikie, Professors A. H. Green (deceased), J. W. Judd, C. Lapworth, A. C. Haddon, Boyd Dawkins, G. H. Darwin and Anderson Stuart, Captain (now Admiral Sir) W. J. L. Wharton, Dr. (now Sir) J. Murray, Drs. H. Hicks (deceased), and H. B. Guppy, Messrs. F. Darwin, H. O. Forbes, G. c. Bourne, S. Hickson, A. R. Binnie, and J. W. Gregory, and Hon. P. Fawcett. At the Oxford Meeting in the following year this Committee presented an interim report, and was reappointed with a grant of 10 for preliminary expenses, and the addition of the following names: Drs. W. T. Blanford and (now Sir) C. Le Neve Foster, and Mr. J. C. Hawkshaw. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the fourth volume in the definitive series, The History of the Study of Landforms or The Development of Geomorphology. Volume 1 (1964) dealt with contributions to the field up to 1890. Volume 2 (1973) dealt with the concepts and contributions of William Morris Davis. Volume 3 (1991) covered historical and regional themes during the 'classic' period of geomorphology, between 1980 and 1950. This volume concentrates on studies of geomorphological processes and Quaternary geomorphology, carrying on these themes into the second part of the twentieth century, since when process-based studies have become so dominant. It is divided into five sections. After chapters dealing with geological controls, there are three sections dealing with process and form: fluvial, glacial and other process domains. The final section covers the mid-century revolution, anticipating the onset of quantitative studies and dating techniques. The volume's objective is to describe and analyse many of the developments that provide a foundation for the rich and varied subject matter of contemporary geomorphology. The volume is in part a celebration of the late Professor Richard Chorley, who devised its structure and contributed a chapter.
