While much of the archival material held by BGS is of historical value, many of the items have a very real and practical application today. For example, the old six-inch County Series maps record features that are no longer apparent. Urbanisation and modern agriculture have obscured many of the old mine shafts, quarries, water wells and industrial sites. The maps and the accompanying notebooks and photographs of the early surveyors describe features that have long since disappeared from view, but some of these have left a legacy that is still relevant today, for example old mine workings, or sites that have been polluted by industrial or mining processes.

http://www.physci.wsc.ma.edu/young/myhgeol.html
PHYS 0106 (Historical Geology - 3 credits): This course counts as an "Allied Science" in the WSC core and is normally offered each spring semester.
Course Description: A survey of Earth history (with an emphasis on North America) and of the scientific principles on which that history has been based. The course also provides students with an introduction to scientific methodology and the multifaceted interactions between science, technology and society. Topics to be covered include the interpretation of sedimentary rock sequences in terms of depositional environments, the history of life on Earth as inferred from the fossil record, and a synthesis of Earth history in terms of plate tectonics.

This article discusses the history of the relationship between geology and physics. For a long time, geologists have sought to emulate the perspective and methodology of physics, while neglecting its own more interpretive approach. The complexity of modern environmental problems requires the development and application of geology's historical and interpretive side.

About
By Dale R. Simpson, Professor Emeritus - Geology James Hutton, 1785, presented a discourse concerning erosion, sedimentation, and recycling of earth materials in an orderly sequence, and he concluded with the statement that "the present is the key to the past". This presentation is considered to be the beginning of modern geology. Lehigh University was founded about 100 years later with one of the initial faculty appointments being William Theodore Roepper, a recognized metallurgist and geologist. Until 1907, geology complemented other technical disciplines, but, with the addition of Benjamin L. Miller as Professor of Geology, the discipline evolved at the University as a scientific study recognized with a BA or a BS degree. Benjamin Miller, 1874-1944, promoted, guided, and led geology at Lehigh for 37 years. These years constituted about 25 percent of the period of modern geology, and they encompassed a period of rapid evolution of geologic thought. Through his publications, Miller was a major contributor to geological findings. His preeminent publications are the Northampton County Bulletin, 1939, and the Lehigh County Bulletin, 1941, which are the subject of the following notes. A further contribution by Miller was the development of the geology department and the selection of eminent scientists to continue the development and advancement of geology. Some insight of the professional contributions of these scientists is shown by their authored sections of the Lehigh and Northampton County Bulletins.

Definition of historical geology: the science of unraveling the earth's history. Detectives, and mysteries as a metaphor for historical geology. Decipherment of local histories:
  • Nicolaus Steno in 1600s
  • James Hutton in the late 1700s
    • cross cutting relationships.
    • unconformities - 3 types:
      • nonconformity: with an older underlying sequence composed of plutonic and metamorphic rocks (basement).
      • angular unconformity: with an older underlying sedimentary sequence that is at an angle to and truncated by the unconformity.
      • disconformity: with an older underlying sedimentary sequence that is concordant to the overlying younger sequence, but a significant time gap.
    • provided conceptual framework for construction of local histories.
  • Grand Canyon as an example. Time for all this to happen.
  • To the left is a view from the Grand Canyon outer rim wall down into the inner gorge area. Note the dashed yellow line that separates flat lying sedimentary rocks above from much older metamorphic and plutonic rocks with almost vertical layering below. Some of the whitish layers in the lower sequence are sill intrusions of the Zoraster granite into the Vishnu schist. What type of unconformity is represented by the yellow line? If you carefully at the cliff forming layer of sandstones directly above the unconformity you note they vary in thickness, and indeed a small, filled, paleovalley is seen to the right. Also note that other sedimentary rocks (red beds) lie underneath this same basal unit above the unconformity in the background, so that different rock units lie underneath this unconformity in different places.

http://www.hi.is/~oi/historical_geology.htm
Historical Geology is the study of changes to Earth and life in time and space. In a sense, it is the spirit and soul of all geological research. Geology is the scientific study of rocks, rock formations, and structure of the earth, but another way to put is to say that geology deals with the history of the Earth as recorded in rocks. I teach two undergraduate courses in Historical Geology at the University of Iceland. Below you will find links to pdf files containing some of my lecture notes. I have roamed freely on the web and scavenged textbooks and journals when preparing the lectures. I always try to give references to my sources, but in the spirit of "what goes around comes around", please feel free to use these lectures for educational purposes...

Emphasis is placed on the development of Earth's major features (continents, ocean basins, mountain belts, biosphere, and atmosphere), earth materials (rocks and minerals), the dynamic internal and external processes that have shaped Earth and its life forms, and the history of life on Earth. The class provides an introduction to the study of fossils and the origins and history of life as revealed by the fossil record. The concept of geologic time is examined, as well as the development of the geologic time scale and the principles of relative and absolute dating. The theories of plate tectonics and organic evolution are investigated, and consideration is given to the methods by which these theories were developed and continue to be tested and revised.
