Anne Buttimer 1938–2017. Geography and Biography Federico Ferretti Alun Jones UCD School of Geography On 15 July 2017, sad news began to circulate in geographical milieus that Anne Buttimer had passed away. Buttimer was an international, transcultural and cosmopolitan geographer, known internationally for her innovative research, her command of languages, her humanity. To write her biography is a challenging task, but simultaneously an inspiring one, not least because she was one of the geographers most committed to the values of biography (and autobiography) in the discipline. Through the Dialogue Project that she launched with Torsten Hägerstrand, she valued life experiences as a critical tool in making sense of geographical engagement and was one of the co-founders of the IGU Commission on the History of Geography.

  • Medals and Awards Gold Medal Recipients
    Medals and Awards Gold Medal Recipients The Gold Medals (Founder’s and Patron’s Medals) originated as an annual gift of fifty guineas from King William IV. It was awarded for the first time in 1831, for the encouragement and promotion of geographical science and discovery. In 1839 the Society decided that this sum should be converted into two gold medals of equal value, to be designated the Founder’s Medal and the Patron’s Medal. Today both Medals are approved by Her Majesty The Queen. Gold Medal recipients are listed in full below: 1832 Founder's Medal - Richard Lander For important services in determining the course and termination of the Niger 1833 Founder's Medal - John Biscoe For his discovery of Graham’s Land and Enderby’s Land in the Antarctic 1834 Founder's Medal - Captain Sir John Ross For his discovery of Boothia Felix and King William Land and for his famous sojourn of four winters in the Arctic 1835 Founder's Medal - Sir Alexander Burnes For his remarkable and important journeys through Persia 1836 Founder's Medal - Captain Sir George Back For his recent discoveries in the Arctic, and his memorable journey down the Great Fish River 1837 Founder's Medal - Captain Robert Fitzroy For his survey of the coasts of South America, from the Rio de la Plata to Guayaquil in Peru 1838 Founder's Medal - Colonel Francis Rawdon Chesney For valuable materials in comparative and physical geography in Syria, Mesopotamia and the delta of Susiana 1839 Founder's Medal - Thomas Simpson For tracing the hitherto unexplored coast of North America Patron's Medal - Dr.

There are both reductionist and holistic approaches to Earth sciences. The formal discipline of Earth sciences may include the study of the atmosphere, oceans and biosphere, as well as the solid earth. Typically Earth scientists will use tools from physics, chemistry, biology, chronology and mathematics to build a quantitative understanding of how the Earth system works, and how it evolved to its current state. A volcano eruption is the release of stored energy from below the surface of Earth, originating from radioactive decay and gravitational sorting in the Earth's core and mantle, and residual energy gained [2] during the Earth`s formation. Fields of study The following fields of science are generally categorized within the geosciences: • Geology describes the rocky parts of the Earth's crust (or lithosphere) and its historic development.
