Home›Earth Sciences›GeologistsGroupGeologistsThis group collects the Earth Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns geology in the general sense: the structure, composition and history of the solid Earth, stratigraphy, tectonics and field geology, spanning the founders of the discipline through its modern structural and economic geologists. It is kept apart from the subcategory's more specialized groups, Mineralogists And Petrologists, Geophysicists And Seismologists, Paleontologists and Volcanologists, whose members work within one narrower branch of earth science rather than general geology.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonField EstablishedWell-attested1741 1Browse ByAll GeologistsGeologists86 entriesGeologistsFilter Results86 entriesDisciplineAllBiology (1)Botany (1)Chemistry (1)Geochemistry (3)Geology (78)Geophysics (1)Hydrology (2)Oceanography (1)Paleontology (2)Petrology (2)Volcanology (1)Field (legacy)AllChemistry and Geology (1)Economic geology (1)Geochemistry (1)Geochemistry, Chemistry (1)Geography (1)Geology (33)Geology and botany (1)Geology and geochemistry (1)Geology and geochronology (1)Geology and geomorphology (1)Geology and hydrogeology (1)Geology and marine geophysics (1)Geology and mining engineering (1)Geology and paleontology (1)Geology and petrography (1)Geology and petrology (1)Geology and sedimentology (1)Geology and stratigraphy (1)Geology and tectonics (1)Geology of the Himalayas (1)Geology, geochemistry (1)Geomorphology and planetary science (1)Planetary geology, volcanology, comparative planetology (1)Sedimentology and petrology (1)Stratigraphy (geology of the Alps) (1)Structural geology (6)EraAll1726 (1)1780 (1)1784 (1)1785 (1)1792 (1)1794 (2)1796 (1)1797 (1)1798 (2)1807 (1)1808 (1)1812 (1)1814 (1)1829 (1)1832 (2)1833 (1)1836 (1)1842 (1)1843 (2)1848 (2)1849 (2)1852 (2)1855 (1)1858 (1)1859 (1)1860 (1)1862 (1)1870 (1)1871 (1)1872 (1)1875 (1)1877 (1)1878 (1)1881 (2)1882 (1)1885 (2)1889 (1)1890 (1)1891 (1)1894 (1)1899 (1)1902 (1)1903 (1)1904 (1)1906 (1)1910 (1)1911 (1)1913 (1)1914 (1)1918 (1)1919 (1)1920 (1)1921 (1)1925 (1)1927 (2)1929 (1)1931 (1)1932 (3)1933 (1)1934 (1)1937 (1)1939 (1)1940 (1)1941 (2)1946 (1)1955 (1)1957 (1)1958 (1)1963 (2)1967 (1)InstitutionAllAmerican Association for the Advancement of Science (4)Brown University (1)Chinese Academy of Sciences (1)Columbia University (1)Cornell University (1)ETH Zurich (1)Harvard University (2)Imperial College London (1)Jadavpur University (3)King's College London (1)Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2)NASA (1)National Academy of Sciences (11)Northwestern University (1)Ohio State University (1)Royal Society (23)Russian Academy of Sciences (1)The Geological Society of London (9)United States Geological Survey (2)University of Bonn (2)University of Calcutta (2)University of California, Berkeley (1)University of California, Los Angeles (1)University of Cambridge (2)University of Chicago (2)University of Manchester (1)University of Oslo (1)University of Wisconsin-Madison (1)University of Wrocław (1)University of Zurich (1)In GroupAllGeologists (86)NationalityAllAustralia (1)Austria (1)Belgium (1)Canada (8)France (2)Germany (5)India (4)Ireland (4)Netherlands (1)New Zealand (1)Norway (1)Sweden (1)Switzerland (6)Turkey (1)United Kingdom (28)United States (26)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 86Adam SedgwickEarth Sciences2 linksAlbert HeimEarth Sciences1 linkAlfred G.
