Download or read book Pocket Guide Geology in the Field written by Tom McCann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a field guide that describes and explains the commonest minerals and rocks as well as introducing the most important fossil groups. In addition, a variety of geological structures are described and illustrated in the numerous diagrams and photographs. The guide is your perfect companion for hikes or walks in the countryside, inviting you to discover the geology hidden behind the landscapes surrounding us, as well as helping you to recognise the various minerals, rocks and fossils, you might encounter. Geology is a science that only really comes to life when we are outside, for example, on walks or hikes along the coast or through national parks. With a little knowledge you will be able to experience the landscape in a completely different way. The rocks will “come alive”, so to speak, and you will be able to read their history like a book - understanding the range and complexity of geological processes which have formed the Earth beneath our feet. Such processes - an interplay of magmatism, tectonics, metamorphosis and sedimentation, as well as climate and sea-level change - have shaped the Earth over millennia and continue to do so even at the present time. The book is aimed at nature lovers of all types, as well as students of geology – in fact, anyone who is interested in the world around us. It will provide the perfect companion for walks or hikes in the countryside. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Pocket Guide Geologie im Gelände by Tom McCann, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2019. The initial translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent detailed revision by the author ensures that the book reads stylistically like a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
Download or read book Geological Field Techniques written by Angela L. Coe and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-07-26 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GEOLOGICAL FIELD TECHNIQUES The understanding of Earth processes and environments over geological time is highly dependent upon both the experience that can only be gained through doing fieldwork, and the collection of reliable data and appropriate samples in the field. This textbook explains the main data gathering techniques used by geologists in the field and the reasons for these, with emphasis throughout on how to make effective field observations and record these in suitable formats. Equal weight is given to assembling field observations from igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rock types. There are also substantial chapters on producing a field notebook, collecting structural information, recording fossil data and constructing geological maps. Geological Field Techniques is designed for students, amateur enthusiasts and professionals who have a background in geology and wish to collect field data on rocks and geological features. Teaching aspects of this textbook include: step-by-step guides to essential practical skills such as using a compass-clinometer, making a geological map and drawing a field sketch; tricks of the trade, checklists, flow charts and short worked examples; over 200 illustrations of a wide range of field notes, maps and geological features; appendices with the commonly used rock description and classification diagrams; a supporting website hosted by Wiley-Blackwell is available at www.wiley.com/go/coe/geology
Download or read book Geology in the Field written by Robert R. Compton and published by . This book was released on 1985-08-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Replaces Compton's Manual of Field Geology (1962). A guide to advances in the increasingly broad and interpretive discipline of formation mapping theory. Thorough, yet compact enough for use in the field, it consists of brief descriptions of textures and structures useful in interpreting depositional environments, kinds of volcanic activity, and plutonic events and conditions. Included are procedures often reserved for the laboratory or office: staining rocks, correcting orientations of current indicators, constructing profile sections of folds, measuring strains, making photogeologic interpretations, and more. Covers pre-field considerations, methods of observation and measurement, recognition of key geologic features, and preparation of a report. Illustrated with composite drawings. Fourteen appendixes provide systemized data and procedures.

Download or read book Geological Field Sketches and Illustrations written by Matthew J. Genge and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-01-16 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to draw field sketches is an essential task for geologists, however it is often overlooked. This book presents simple techniques, useful tips and detailed examples to teach geologists how to draw rocks successfully. Field sketches are the best way to record the natural world, and yet they are one of the most difficult parts of fieldwork to master. This book shows how to go about drawing the key elements of geology in and out of the field and is a practical guide that will help you improve your diagrams and the quality of your notes. Through simple rules, useful tips and detailed examples the author describes how to go about drawing outcrops, structures, hand specimens and thin-sections and what features need to be observed and recorded. If you've ever wished you could draw geology better, this book is for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook for Field Geologists Members of the U. S. Geological Survey have for some time felt the need of a convenient and concise description of geologic field methods. An attempt to meet this need was made by the publication, in 1908, of a Handbook for Field Geologists in the United States Geological Survey. This work was intended for distribution only to members of the Survey, and only a small edition was issued. The requests for copies of the Handbook, which have come in from members of State Surveys, teachers, mining geologists, and others, indicate a genuine need for something of the kind among geologists generally. The present work is written in response to this evident demand. The Survey Handbook has been used in the preparation of this work, omitting those instructions which apply only to members of the Government Survey, and enlarging upon certain features which will be of service to students preparing for work in field geology. In geologic field work, as in most other things, there are certain methods of procedure which have been found by experience better than others, and poor or wrong methods result in loss of efficiency. While many of the suggestions given may appear entirely too elementary, and to cover points on which instructions are unnecessary, it is my experience that mistakes in these simple matters are by no means confined to beginners. Field geologists, and particularly students using this book, are cautioned against its abuse. Directions for making and recording observations and for the use of the schedules are intended to insure thoroughness and system, not to relieve the observer of the necessity for thought. It would be a misfortune if they should hamper originality or reduce the work to a merely mechanical process.
