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 Results87 entriesDisciplineAllBiology (1)Botany (1)Chemistry (1)Geochemistry (3)Geology (79)Geophysics (1)Hydrology (2)Oceanography (1)Paleontology (2)Petrology (2)Volcanology (1)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)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 (27)FieldAllAstrophysics (1)Biology (2)Chemistry (6)Earth Science (82)Economics (1)Engineering (2)Environmental Science (1)Medicine (1)Physics (4)InstitutionAllAcademie des Sciences (1)American Association for the Advancement of Science (4)American Philosophical Society (2)Australian National University (1)Brown University (1)Chinese Academy of Sciences (1)Columbia University (1)Cornell University (1)ETH Zurich (2)Geological Survey of India (2)Harvard University (2)Imperial College London (2)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)Pennsylvania State University (2)Royal Society (24)Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (1)Russian Academy of Sciences (1)The Geological Society of London (9)United States Geological Survey (3)University of Bonn (2)University of Calcutta (2)University of California, Berkeley (1)University of California, Los Angeles (1)University of Cambridge (3)University of Chicago (2)University of Edinburgh (1)University of Groningen (1)University of Liège (1)University of Manchester (1)University of Oslo (1)University of Sydney (1)University of Texas at Austin (1)University of Toronto (1)University of Wisconsin-Madison (1)University of Wrocław (1)University of Zurich (1)Yale University (1)In GroupAllGeologists (86)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 50Adam SedgwickEarth Sciences2 linksAlbert HeimEarth Sciences2 linksAlfred G.
