It has the shape of a shallow-dipping slab or sheet up to a few kilometres thick that was exhumed from the subduction zone and emplaced into the accretionary complex to the northwest. Today the top boundary of the slab is commonly a thrust that was originally a low-angle normal fault at its top in the subduction zone; above it is an accretionary complex and a unit of high-grade gneisses.

  • Notes on the Geology and Fossils of the Ludlow District
    NOTES ON THE GEOLOGY AND FOSSILS OF THE LUDLOW DISTRICT. By A. SMITH WOODWARD, LL.D., F.R.S., President. (A few ad,'ance coft'es issued /0 11ttlnbtr, in July, ' 901.) NDE R the presidency of a palreontologist it seems appro­ U priate that the Geologists ' Association should devote its Long Excursion this year to the study of fossils in the field. It becomes more and more evident, as researches progress, that the past history of life on the earth can only be satisfactorily deciphered when the exact stratigraphical position of each fossil has been determined by careful collecting. The variations of an organism in time and space, and its successive migrations, can only be ascertained by more detailed field-work and more precise labelling than has hitherto been customary among palreontolo­ gists. It is therefore necessary to follow the lead of Lapworth, Buckman, Rowe, Wheelton Hind, Miss Elles, Miss Wood, and others who are inaugurating a new era in the study of British fossils by a most exact and exhaustive method of collecting. The Association, indeed, cannot do better at the present time than attempt to arouse renewed interest in a classic district, which has been much neglected by geologists during recent years, and has scarcely been examined in any respect from the modern standpoint. The classic ground we have chosen to visit is the old country of the Silures, where Murchison originally worked out the details of his Silurian System. Much of it has never been visited by the Association before, and thirty-two years have now elapsed since Ludlow was the centre of one of our excursions.

  • A Study of Saline Incursion Across an Inter-Tidal Zone on Anglesey, Wales
    A study of saline incursion across an inter‐tidal zone on Anglesey, Wales using airborne conductivity data David Beamish British Geological Survey, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK. Near Surface Geophysics, 2012, 10, 171-184 Corresponding author: David Beamish British Geological Survey, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK Email: [email protected]. Tel: +44(0)115 936 3432 Fax: +44(0)115 936 3261 Right running head: inter-tidal zone, saline incursion Anglesey Wales, airborne ABSTRACT This study considers fixed-wing airborne electromagnetic data obtained by a recent high- resolution airborne geophysical survey across the island of Anglesey, Wales. The survey detected an extensive (~10 km in length) highly conductive, near-surface zone across low- lying marsh and salt-marsh areas. The four frequency electromagnetic survey data enable a continuous assessment of subsurface conductivity variations across the inter-tidal zone and onshore into the Holocene sediments and bedrock. Inshore sea-water conductivities exceed 2000 mS/m but reduce across sandbank areas to a range of values, typically exceeding 500 mS/m. Saline incursion onshore is observed largely at lower values and at a range of scales extending to over 10 km. Within defined salt-marsh areas, a main front of near-surface incursion can be mapped and extends several hundred metres inshore. The main body of subsurface saltwater incursion is largely confined to a trough containing Holocene deposits above Upper Carboniferous (Coal) Measures which were historically mined. The main conductive zone becomes more compact, both vertically and laterally, with increasing distance inland. Modelling of the data indicates that, onshore, the major concentrations of dissolved solids are confined to the upper 30 m within undulating subsurface zones.

In this document you will find biographies for just some of the hugely talented people the BBC has already been working with and others who have made their mark elsewhere. It’s the responsibility of every person involved in BBC programme making to ask themselves whether what, and who, they are putting on screen reflects the world around them or just one section of society.
