... From: SIS Workshop No. 5 (Apr 1979) Home | Issue Contents Geological Reflections by Robert M. Langdon ABOVE: Approaching Jackson Hole and the Grand Teton range from the E: looking S towards the Great Salt Lake in late afternoon from 39,000 ft. (9 /78) BELOW: The main wall of the Rockies in NW Montana: looking N towards Glacier Park (US) and Waterton Park (Canadian Rockies) from 37,000 ft. I grew up on the high plains of Colorado at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. This land is so arid that the prairies are almost desert in nature. It is doubtful that, in ...
632. Gerontology, Environment, and Geological Catastrophism [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IV No. 1 (Fall 1978) Home | Issue Contents Gerontology, Environment, and Geological Catastrophism Richard K. Severs Introduction. Environmental health scientists have been fairly successful at intervening in man's relationship to his environment to improve public health. Sometimes these scientists or pragmatists have been called sanitary engineers, water works engineers, physicians, etc. For the last one hundred fifty years their efforts have, in the main, been fruitful in reducing the morbidity and mortality rates in man with respect to infectious and occupational diseases.(1 ) Illnesses from malaria, yellow fever, scarlet fever, measles, diphtheria, etc., have been rare events ...
633. Comets And Catastrophes [Journals] [Pensee]
... make detailed spectral analyses possible. After all, remarked Marsden, "We really don't know what a comet is." UREY'S CATASTROPHIC VIEWS Only a few weeks before the Smithsonian's telegram announcing the discovery of Comet Kohoutek, there appeared in Nature, 242 (March 2, 1973, P. 32) a letter on "Cometary Collisions and Geological Periods" by Professor Harold Urey, who claims there that repeated comet-Earth collisions have been responsible, not only for the tektites scattered over Earth's surface, but also for the catastrophic breaks between major geological periods. He cites as possible effects of these collisions "great variation in climatic conditions," "great seismic effects," "extensive ...

The existence of large masses of water (the ...
635. The Kintraw Stone Platform [Journals] [Kronos]
... samples. "The writer is of the opinion that single samples are of limited value for genetic study because of variations which may accompany particular environmental conditions."(11) Compare these statements with the decidedly sparse information presented by Mr. Bibby: Five contours; no accompanying statistical data; Broadlaw and Kintraw, although geographically adjacent, are geologically dissimilar; the sites at Broadlaw were above 450m in altitude, that at Kintraw only 45m. The limitations inherent in petrofabric analyses, the paucity of information offered, and the geological diversity between Broadlaw and Kintraw mitigate severely against Mr. Bibby's conclusion. Even allowing for the above, and accepting that petrofabric analyses may have limited use as ...
636. Basinger's Lecture on the Eocene Forests of the Canadian High Arctic [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1989 No 2 (Feb 1990) Home | Issue Contents HORIZONS Basinger's Lecture on the Eocene Forests of the Canadian High Arctic The Logan Club and the National Museum of Natural Sciences sponsored a talk by Dr. Basinger of the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Saskatoon, Canada. Basinger spoke on the topic, Early Tertiary Fossil Flora of the Eureka Sound Group, Canadian High Arctic' at Alice Wilson Hall in Ottawa on April 14, 1987. The lecture notice referred to coal-bearing sediments of the Eureka Sound Group that are found scattered throughout much of the Arctic Archipelago and which have been known for over a century to contain fossil ...
637. Geomagnetic Effects of an Earthwide Event in 2300BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... book have been published by the SIS) and the second book dedicated to the thesis that all the early mythology developed from an encounter of the Earth with a massive meteoroid stream in 2300BC. This paper addresses clear evidence that the event at 2300 BC included geomagnetic transients and ongoing geomagnetic changes. The only causative agent for these phenomena would be geological events so that this paper supports the argument that climatic and geological events actually happened at that time. These events are reported on in my two previous papers in the C&CR [1 ]. As part of my investigations into geophysical events at 2300 BC, I came across a large number of geomagnetic disturbances. The disturbances took ...
638. Milankovitch's Curves and Palaeoclimatology [Books]
... b ) The astronomical (tropic) year has also remained constant for many millions of years. (c ) No variables, other than those studied in the previous sections, have had any influence on palaeoclimatology. Zeuner writes: `If known and observable factors can be found which explain in a simple and observable way the fluctuations revealed by geological evidence, they are to be preferred to ad hoc assumptions of any description.6 In Part II of this book it has been shown that huge meteoritic craters have already been found on our planet and that they are the result of impacts which must have disturbed the movements of the Earth. The craters are perfectly observable factors: the ...
639. Evolution from Space [Articles]
... am sure you all await it as eagerly as I do. Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for those very warm words of welcome. It is a pleasure to be here. The question of the origin of life is perhaps THE most interdisciplinary question in the whole of science. Traditionally, it connects biology, geology, chemistry and physics, but I shall endeavour to show you today that it must encompass also subjects such as epidemiology, as the Chairman hinted, and astronomy as well. The Universe itself, the great big Universe, does not define or respect boundaries between scientific disciplines which are of course human constructs, derived simply for human convenience ...

... in the Paris area, where marine animals alternate with land animals; these strata disclosed that in the upper marine bed were many kinds of shell-bearing molluscs that still inhabit the waters of the sea, and that the deeper the stratum, the fewer the living forms of molluscs. Following the publication of Deshayes's work, Lyell devised a timetable of geological ages. The fossilized remains of ancient animals indicate changes in fauna in the course of time; Lyell's measurement of geological periods is based on such changes in the animal kingdom, especially among the shell fauna. He found that there has been in the Quaternary, or the age of man, not more than one twentieth of the evolution ...
