...Roland E. Chardon Abstract Examination of properly evaluated historical maps of the preurban (that is, 1770 to 1867) sedimentary barrier bordering northern Biscayne Bay in southeastern Florida indicates (1) net shore retreat averaging about 3.0 m/yr in the northern Atlantic portion of the barrier...

...Barbara M. Hill; M.E. Bickford Abstract Paleoproterozoic (1770–1735 Ma) bimodal volcanic rocks in central Colorado have been considered to represent southward growth of Laurentia by arc accretion. Although the bimodality of these rocks suggests an extensional continental setting rather than...

Georges Cuvier (1769–1832) and Alexandre Brongniart (1770–1847) were among the researchers who adhered to the ‘Facts First’ approach to understanding nature. Brongniart is an exemplar of the dedicated empiricist, careful observer, and cautious writer who was able to see...

But to this time fossils had only been used to identify (and discriminate between) often repetitive lithological units or to establish a relationship between rock units in different areas. The practical demonstration that particular lithological units...

French intervention in 1838, also known as the ‘Pastry War’. 3 Those episodes were practically inconsequential, compared to the Mexican-American War (1846–1848), where Mexico lost half of its territory, and later on, the military occupation of Mexico by Napoleon III (1862–1867) to support Austrian...

... if work by the prisoners seemingly stopped in late 1867, Brome’s own interest continued, for he completed a detailed report on his cave explorations dated 14 May 1868, accompanied with plans and sections, to supplement his first report of 1863—providing much of the information quoted by Busk (1869...

.... An historical view of the Earth was yet to emerge ( Rudwick 1996 ). Thus it was the Carte géognostique des environs de Paris, published in 1811 by Georges Cuvier (1769–1832) and Alexandre Brongniart (1770–1847) ( Cuvier and Brongniart 1811 ), that marked the beginning of modern geological mapping...
