Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology and Geomorphology of the Southern Central Blue Ridge: An Indexed Bibliography Much research has already been done on the geology and geomorphology of the Blue Ridge. The purpose of this bibliography is to provide researchers access to these accumulated references. The emphasis of the bibliography is on the geology of the region, for there appears to be relatively little scientific literature written on the geomorphology of this portion of the Blue Ridge. This bibliography covers the Central and Southern Blue Ridge physiographic provinces from southcentral Pennsylvania to northeastern Georgia. Along this corridor the Blue Ridge ranges from five miles to more than 50 miles in width (hunt However, the geologic processes which generated the Blue Ridge were also responsible for the stratigraphy and structure of the rocks in the remainder of the Appalachian belt, namely the Piedmont, Valley and Ridge, and the Appalachian Plateaus. Although the Blue Ridge terminates in Georgia, the rocks, stratigraphy, and structural trends continue into Alabama and in fact may be continuous with the Ouachita Province farther to the west. Because of the intimate geologic relationship of the Appalachian physiographic provinces, the author has included selected references on Piedmont and Valley and Ridge geology representative of this relationship (thomas et al. 1980; Thomas 1973; Milici 1970, The earliest works in geology appeared to have two functions: to describe the geology of an area (kieth 1903, 1904, 19058; Hitchcock 1885; Jones 1923; etc.) or to determine the economic importance of mineral deposits (emmons and Laney 1926.

Book excerpt: The Appalachian Mountain chain to which the Appalachian Trail is anchored are America's classic mountains, featuring pieces of almost every major geological event in Earth's history. This amateur geologist (a chemical engineer by occupation) walked the entire trail over a period of more than 10 years, looking at the manifestations today of events millions of years ago-through a hiker's eyes. This book, reviewed before publication by three top academics in the field, provides background on the development of the rocks beneath the hiker's feet, with layperson-friendly maps and photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1889 William Morris Davis offered in his paper The Rivers and Valleys of Pennsylvania'' an elegant set of arguments for the origin of the ridges and gaps, and went on to propose a model for the drainage development and geomorphic evolution of the Appalachians. His work served to focus the geomorphic community into an intense, extended debate on the nature and fundamental controls of the long-term erosion of the Appalachians. The 100th anniversary of Davis' provocative paper prompted the convening of a symposium to address some of the fundamental questions about the Appalachians, the 1989 Geomorphology Symposium. The theme of this symposium was the geomorphic evolution of the Appalachians. This volume brings together a collection of papers from the symposium, to provide a summary of the current state of knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Appalachians constitute one of Earth's major tectonic features and have served as a springboard for innovative geologic thought for more than 170 years. This volume contains 36 original papers reporting the results of research performed throughout nearly the entire length and breadth of the Appalachian region, including all major provinces and geographical areas. Memoir 206 was designed to commemorate the (near-)fortieth anniversary of the publication of the classic Studies of Appalachian Geology volumes that appeared just prior to the application of plate tectonic concepts to the region. Contributions concerning structural evolution, sedimentation, stratigraphy, magmatic processes, metamorphism, tectonics, and terrane accretion illustrate the wide range of ongoing research in the area and collectively serve to mark the considerable progress in scientific thought that has occurred during the past four decades."--pub. desc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part natural history, part poetry, Mountains of the Heart is full of hidden gems and less traveled parts of the Appalachian Mountains Stretching almost unbroken from Alabama to Belle Isle, Newfoundland, the Appalachians are one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world. In Mountains of the Heart, renowned author and avid naturalist Scott Weidensaul shows how geology, ecology, climate, evolution, and 500 million years of history have shaped one of the continent's greatest landscapes into an ecosystem of unmatched beauty. This edition celebrates the book's 20th anniversary of publication and includes a new foreword from the author.
