We identify 14 mechanisms, marine and non-marine, one man made, that result and could result in the formation of boulder deposits after reviewing issues associated with clast shape, size and classification. Four of these mechanisms: storm deposits; w

Stephen Moorbath was an intellectual with eclectic interests across the sciences and humanities. In 1939, as a ten-year-old, he fled from Germany to England with his father. Stephen spent almost the whole of the rest of his life—from schoolboy to u

The Moine Thrust zone ofNWScotland marks the Caledonian orogenic front and in the Assynt region consists of several west-vergent major thrust sheets (Moine, Ben More, Glencoul and Sole Thrust sheets) that place allochthonous rocks onto the Lewisian b

Although the deformation of foliated rocks by kink and glide mechanisms has been studied in detail in recent years, fundamental differences of opinion have emerged, particularly as a result of experimental work. Most theories concerning the relations

A composite tectonic profile, from Clew Bay to central Murrisk is constructed and the sequence of structural events from the Upper Cambrian to post-Wenlock—pre-Visean (C2 S2) times is outlined. Four main structural episodes affected the Dalradian r

During the course of this Discussion Meeting, a very large amount of regional tectonic geology was displayed, and debated critically in a terrane framework, on scales ranging from the whole of the North American Precambrian or the Mesozoic-Cenozoic T

The principal theme of this book is the idea that many features of plate boundaries and plate motion are the direct result of major bolide impacts throughout the Earth’s history. The book is in four parts. First, there is a detailed outline of plat

The age difference of oceanic crust on opposite sides of a fracture zone results in a depth differential and in different subsidence rates on the two sides. There is thus a component of dip-slip motion along the entire length of a fracture zone that
