Esta reunión tuvo una amplia acogida en la comunidad de Ciencias de la Tierra, con la participación de representantes de las diferentes Universidades Nacionales donde se dicta la carrera de Geología. En esa ocasión, se recibieron doce ponencias de distintas universidades donde se enseñaba la Licenciatura en Geología y, en muchas de ellas, el Doctorado en Ciencias Geológicas. La reunión estuvo caracterizada por interesantes discusiones y comentarios sobre la evolución e historia de los distintos centros de estudio. Los resúmenes de esas ponencias fueron publicados con las Actas del XX Congreso Geológico Argentino en Tucumán. Al término del Simposio, los presentes acordaron escribir más in extenso las diferentes ponencias presentadas y reunirlas en un número especial en una revista científica, como herramienta para dar a conocer las diferentes singularidades y la evolución de las diferentes instituciones

  • Gustav Steinmann Und Sein Einfluss Auf Die Erforschung Von Gebirgsbildungsprozessen 37
    Gustav Steinmann und sein Einfluss auf die Erforschung von Gebirgsbildungsprozessen 37 Gustav Steinmann und sein Einfluss auf die Erforschung von Gebirgsbildungs- prozessen in Alpen und Apennin Marc Krecher Kurzfassung Zwischen dem Ende des 19. und dem Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts konnten bedeu- tende Fortschritte zum Verständnis der Gebirgsbildung und der Dynamik von Sedimentbecken erreicht werden. Eine der wesentlichen Fragestellungen war die nach der primären oder sekundären Ursache von horizontal verschobenen Gebirgs- decken. Erfolgten die tektonischen Bewegungen primär in der Vertikalen und nur sekundär als schwerkraftbedingte Gleitungen oder gab es dominierende horizontale Krustenverschiebungen, die eine Schubkraft auf die Gebirgsdecken ausübten? Eng damit verbunden war auch die Frage nach der Permanenz von Ozeanen und Kontinenten. Einer der engagiertesten Verfechter der horizontalen Krustenverschie- bungen war Alfred Wegener, der seit 1912 mit seinem Modell der Kontinentaldrift intensive Diskussionen in der Geologengemeinschaft hervorgerufen hat. Gustav Steinmann, Gründer der Geologischen Institute in Freiburg i. Br. und in Bonn, erkann- te die Bedeutung, welche den fossilen Tiefseesedimenten in den Gebirgen für das Verständnis der Krustendynamik zukommt. In der Kombination von bestimmten Gebirgsdecken in den Alpen und im Apennin mit Ozeanbodengesteinen und fossilen Tiefseesedimenten sah er den Schlüssel zur Rekonstruktion des Entstehungsraumes der beiden Gebirge. Mit dieser Rekonstruktion konnte „endgültiger Ozeanboden“ in Form von Schubdecken zum Gebirge werden, eine zu seiner Zeit sehr umstrittene Interpretation. Im Apennin waren diese Zusammenhänge besser zu studieren als in den komplex gebauten und schwerer zugänglichen Alpen. Mit seinen geologischen Arbeiten und Interpretationen legte er den Grundstein für die moderne Geologie des Nördlichen Apennins (Italien) und trug gleichzeitig in besonderer Weise zur Entwick- lung der heutigen Plattentektonik bei.

  • Memorial to Roland Brinkmann 1889-1995 FRANZ KOCKEL Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources Stilleweg 2, D-30115 Hannover, Germany
    Memorial to Roland Brinkmann 1889-1995 FRANZ KOCKEL Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources Stilleweg 2, D-30115 Hannover, Germany Roland Brinkmann died April 3, 1995, at age 95 in Hamburg. German geology lost with him a great scientist and an extraordinary teacher who influenced more than one generation of geologists. Brinkmann was born January 23, 1898, in Hagenow, in Mecklenburg. He remained a Mecklenburgian despite his extensive worldwide travels and studies. He spoke English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Polish, as well as fluent Turkish, with the guttural accent of the Baltic coast. His parents moved to Bad Doberan, as his education could not be continued in Hagenow. As a pupil he came to know Eugen Geinitz, professor of geology at Rostock University, as an early mentor, and in 1918 he published his first paper on the Pleistocene geology of Bad Doberan. Brinkmann studied in Freiburg im Breisgau and completed his Ph.D. thesis, “The Subdivi­ sion of the North German Quaternary,” in 1921. Between 1921 and 1933 he was assistant to the great German geologist, Hans Stille, in Gottingen. In 1923 at age 25, he qualified as a professor with a paleontological-biostratigraphical-paleogeographical study on the Middle Jurassic and Oxfordian in the German Baltic coastal region and in Lithuania. He revised the taxonomy of the Cosmoceras group, using additional faunas he collected in the British Peterborough district. These fauna collections were his database for statistical research on the term species and the phyllogeny of the Middle Jurassic ammonoids. In 1929 he became an associate professor. He had married Margarete Schnepfer, a mineralogist, in 1923, and by 1937 they had six children, three girls and three boys.

It is a third contribution t() a series of papers written as (he result of a two years' expedition to South America (1910-12) undm~aken on behalf of tile late Mr. W. E. Balston, F.G.S. The district traversed is one of the best-known and most populous in Peru, for through it passes the northern Transandine route from Lima, the capital of the countlT, to the port of Iquitos on the Amazon, whence steamers sail direct to Europe. The first half of the section follows the line of the central railway of Peru. This is the well-known Oroya line, famous not only as the highest milwsy in the world, but also as a wonderful feat of engineering, rising as it does to an altitude of over 15,000 feet in a course of 100 miles.

Handy Department of Earth Science, Freie Universität Berlin, Malteserstrasse 74‑100, 12249 Berlin, Germany Hans P. Laubscher, Professor emeritus of Geology at the University of Basel, passed away on 2 July 2015, in Riehen, Switzerland. A leading tectonician and one of the great Alpine geologists of our time, he spent his career combining careful fieldwork with deep insight into the theoretical and experimental aspects of tectonics. At the centre of his research was the analysis of tectonic systems, from small-scale folds to mountain belts and the global puzzle of lithospheric plates through geologic time. In 1993, Hans Laubscher received the Gustav Steinmann Medal of the Geologische Vereinigung in recognition of his research on the kinematics and mass balancing of tectonic systems. Hans Laubscher was born on 11 January 1924, in Muttenz, near Basel. After attending the Classical Gymnasium in Basel, he enrolled at the University of Basel and obtained his PhD degree in Geology in 1947 at the age of 23. He then worked for 10 years with an oil company in the southern foreland of the Venezuelan Andes, first as junior field geologist, and then as a geophysicist and staff geologist combining, as he put it, “dirty geology with clean physics”.

Early studies of ophiolites prior to the plate tectonic revolution emphasized the development of ophiolites as in situ intrusions within geosynclines. The genetic association of mantle peridotites with volcanic and plutonic rocks in ophiolites was not considered in these studies, and the emplacement of serpentinized ultramafi c rocks in orogenic belts remained a topic of debate regard- ing ophiolites among the North American geoscientists.
