Dullo W.C. (Ed.) Milestones in Geosciences

Springer, 2003. — 150 p.This Golden Volume of the International Journal of Earth Sciences presents papers published in the Geologische Rundschau, which we consider to be milestones in the evolution of Earth Sciences. The idea arose during a board meeting several years ago and was put forward by our former Vice President, Celal Sengör, who argued that many important papers were to be found in our Society’s journal and that they should be reprinted and translated into English. Many of these contributions paved the way to modern Earth Systems Science.The origins of continents, Wegener, A.
Are there ancient deep-sea deposits of geologic significance?, Steinmann, G.
Amerika und Eurafrika: the origin of the Atlantic-Arctic Ocean, Toit, A. L.
Stratigraphy of recent deep-sea sediments based upon foraminiferal fauna, Schott, W.
No geology without marine geology, Kuenen, P. H.
The physical-chemical conditions relating to the formation of salt deposits and their application to geologic problems, Arrhenius, S., Lachmann, R.
The chemical and structural metamorphosis of coals,Teichmüller, M., Teichmüller, R.
Geochronology of the last 12,000 years, Geer, G.
On experimental tectonics. Comparative analysis of three types of displacement, Cloos, H.
Fluid inclusions with gas bubbles as geothermometers, Correns, C. W.
Investigating the Earth’s crust with the help of explosions, Wiechert, E.
The structure of the Earth’s crust in Europe, Gutenberg, B.
