Home›Chemistry›In Group›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)Chemistry (1)Geochemistry (3)Geology (64)Geophysics (1)Hydrology (1)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)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)Columbia University (1)King's College London (1)Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1)National Academy of Sciences (10)Royal Society (16)The Geological Society of London (9)University of Bonn (1)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 (25)BrowseCompareSelect all 86Adam SedgwickEarth Sciences2 linksAlbert HeimEarth Sciences1 linkAlfred G.
