Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geology of Caithness: Sheets 110 and 116, With Parts of 109, 115 and 117 The Survey of the Caithness plain and the outliers of Old Red Sandstone along, the north coast of Sutherland has been in progress for a number of years. Most of the ground is low-lying and there is little deer forest; consequently it was suitable for work in the latter part of autumn when the deer-forest ground was no longer open. In 1886 Dr. Home and Dr. Peach began the examination of the Old Red Sandstone near Tongue, and since then the mapping has been carried on at intervals, during the limited time available each year. Dr. Horne and Dr. Peach mapped most of the outliers in the north of Sutherland. Dr. Home also investigated the area about Westerdale, Scotscalder and Reay. Mr. Greenly mapped part of Sutherlandshire and of the north coast of Caithness about Castletown. Mr. Pocock was engaged in the neighbourhood of Halkirk and Loch Calder, and surveyed also the upper portion of the basin of the Berriedale Water and of Strathmore. Dr. Peach, who had general charge of the work in Caithness till September 1905, surveyed the ground about Loch Watten, Georgemas, Loch Shurrery, Brough and Dunnet Head. Dr. Crampton has probably mapped a larger part of Caithness than any other member of the Geological Survey, including the north-east of the county from Wick by Duncansby to Ham, the Berriedale and Braemore districts, and the Sarclet Anticline as far south as Lybster. Mr. Carruthers mapped most of the Latheron Syncline, including the coast from near Dunbeath to Lybster, and carried the work northwards through the moorland to near Loch Watten. Mr. Anderson surveyed a small area near Latheron. After 1906 Mr. Hinxman was District Geologist in charge of the field-work. Since the services of many of those who originally surveyed the ground were no longer available, when the Memoir was written, some re-examination of their areas became necessary. Accordingly Dr. Crampton visited and examined the area between Dunnet and Thurso, and Mr. Carruthers re-examined the district between Achanarras and Thurso and thence westwards by the coast to Reay. Dr. Peach and Dr. Home have prepared a chapter on the glaciation of the whole county, besides describing the solid geology of the areas which they mapped. The fossil fishes collected were in all cases submitted to Dr. Traquair for identification, and the fossil plants to Dr. Kidston. Mr.D. Tait has compiled the bibliography, and has also furnished valuable information about the Leavad boulder. The photographs were taken by Mr. Lunn. Dr. Flett has contributed an introductory chapter and also an account of the petrography of the igneous rocks. Dr. Kitchin and Dr, Lee have named the Secondary and Tertiary fossils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In describing the geomorphological heritage of Scotland, this volume offers a remarkable account of how the natural environment responded in terms of landforms, processes and plant communities, to severe climatic change as the Quaternary era progressed over the last two million years. This legacy, as preserved in the 138 nationally important GCR sites described, documents a remarkable diversity of landforms in a relatively small area. The rugged highland contrast with the rolling hills and flat plains found further south, while the western and northern islands, together with the highly-indented coastline add further to the scenic diversity. How this variety of landscapes came into being, the forces which shaped it , and the climatic extremes which drove it, are the themes explored in this volume.
