Book excerpt: Excerpt from Explanatory Notes to Accompany a New Geological Map of England and Wales Five years ago, Mr. Bartholomew, who had with great labour constructed from the sheets of the Ordnance Survey a general topographical map of England and Wales on the scale of ten miles to an inch, expressed to me his willingness to employ the same plates for the production of a geological map of the country, if I would superintend the reduction from the published maps of the Geological Survey. His map is so good as a general topographical representation of the country, that it appeared to me likely to prove convenient and useful if the geology were inserted on it. Accordingly, his proposal was eventually carried into effect, and the map so prepared is now issued to the public. While the reduction has been made by Mr. Bartholomew's able assistant, Mr. Bosse, it has been repeatedly revised by some of my colleagues in the Geological Survey, as well as by myself. The late Mr. W. Topley, took a large share in the early stages of this labour, and since his death the task has been carried on by Mr. H. B. Woodward, Mr. W. Gibson, and Mr. W. W. Watts. I have drawn the Sections which are placed round the borders of the map to explain the geological structure of the country. The following brief Notes are intended merely for the general reader or traveller who may have no special geological knowledge, but may be induced to take the map with him as a convenient guide in journeying across the country. The meaning of the various colours and the nature of the rocks they represent are here brie y explained. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Himalayan mountain belt, which developed during the India–Asia collision starting about 55 Ma ago, is a dramatically active orogen and it is regarded as the classic collisional orogen. It is characterized by an impressively continuous 2500 km of tectonic units, thrusts and normal faults, as well as large volumes of high-grade metamorphic rocks and granites exposed at the surface. This constitutes an invaluable field laboratory, where amazing crustal sections can be observed directly in very deep gorges. It is possible to unravel the tectonic and metamorphic evolution of litho-units, to observe the mechanisms of exhumation of deep-seated rocks and the propagation of the deformation. Himalayan tectonics has been the target of many studies from numerous international researchers over the years. In the last 15 years there has been an explosion of data and theories from both geological and geophysical perspectives. This book presents the results of integrated multidisciplinary studies, including geology, petrology, magmatism, geochemistry, geochronology and geophysics, of the structures and processes affecting the continental lithosphere. These processes and their spatial and temporal evolution have major consequences on the geometry and kinematics of the India–Eurasia collision zone.

Download or read book Tectonic Development of the Eastern Mediterranean Region written by A. H. F. Robertson and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2006 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eastern Mediterranean region is a classic area for the study of tectonic processes and settings related to the development of the Tethyan orogenic belt. The present set of research and synthesis papers by earth scientists from countries in this region and others provides an up-to-date, interdisciplinary overview of the tectonic development of the Eastern Mediterranean region from Precambrian to Recent. Key topics include continental rifting, ophiolite genesis and emplacement, continental collision, extensional tectonics, crustal exhumation and intra-plate deformation (e.g. active faulting). Alternative tectonic reconstructions of the Tethyan orogen are presented and discussed, with important implications for other regions of the world. The book will be an essential source of information and interpretation for academic researchers (geologists and geophysicists), advanced undergraduates and also for industry professionals, including those concerned with hydrocarbons, minerals and geological hazards (e.g. earthquakes).
