Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of the City of New York: Greater New York In geological affinities, if the term may be used, Manhattan and the Bronx are allied to northern or primordial, even archaean' structures; Richmond, Kings and Queens to southern and recent, though, indeed, in Richmond, there is a problematical nucleus of serpentine hills, probably derivative from crystalline schists, similar to those of Manhattan Island. In View of this diversity of feature the discussion of the topo graphical conditions and the geological nature of the City of New York will naturally fall into. Three sections; first that of Manhattan Island, with an appendix embracing briefly the similar construction of the Borough of the Bronx; second, that of Brooklyn and Queens and third, that of Richmond.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of the City of New York: With Numerous Illustrations and Maps The Third Edition of the Geology of the City of New York is much enlarged over the Second: first, through the necessary additions of further geological studies of Manhattan Island by various investigators, and second, through the desirable ex tension of the geology of Brooklyn Borough, which is made the justification of 'epitomizing the geology of Long Island. The mineralogical detail has been more fully given, and, in a few expository sections, brief outlines of the Second Edition have undergone apposite elaboration.

This book was released on 2016-12-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Study of the Geological Collections of the New York State Museum It has been the experience of the Director of the State Museum that a majority of the visitors to the Geological Hall have not had the advantage of an elementary training in geology and therefore do not obtain from the collections such information as they might receive if they fully understood their purpose and value. This statement applies both to the majority of the adult visitors and to the pupils of the various schools who, with their teachers, visit the geologic collections every year. With this fact in view, it seemed important to prepare a Guide to the Study of the Geologic Collections which could be sold at a nominal price and therefore placed within the reach of all who might need it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of the New York City (Catskill) Aqueduct: Studies in Applied Geology Covering Problems Encountered in Explorations Along the Line of the Aqueduct From the Catskill Mountains to New York City It is the writer's hope that the series of studies brought together in this bulletin may help to effect a wider appreciation of the prac tical usefulness of geology. The volume contains a summary of the local geologic facts and the general principles found helpful in solving some of the problems encountered in a single great engineer ing enterprise. The summary is accompanied by brief discussions of the methods employed and of the final results or conclusions reached. It is therefore essentially a study in applied geology. Seldom has so favorable an opportunity been afforded to follow extensive exploratory work and check geologic hypothesis or theory by subsequent proof. And still more seldom have engineers in charge of Similar works so fully appreciated the value of geologic investigations and the extent to which they can be utilized as a guide.

Download or read book Geology and Palaeontology of Eighteen Mile Creek and the Lake Shore Sections of Erie County, New York written by Amadeus W. Grabau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology and Palaeontology of Eighteen Mile Creek and the Lake Shore Sections of Erie County, New York: A Hand-Book for the Use of Students and Amateurs This book is intended as the first of a series of hand-books of local geology, which treat the subject with special reference to the needs of the student. The advantage of beginning the study of geology with the special consideration of a selected field, instead of the general text-book study, must be apparent, even though it seems like a complete inversion of the normal order of procedure. In order that the student who comes to the field without a preliminary training in geology may take up the subject intelligently, the first portion of the introductory chapter of Part I. Is devoted to a brief consideration of the elementary geological principles involved in the structure of the region under consideration. Hence no apology is needed for the introduction of such matters here. In chapters one and two the eight sections of the most important portion of the gorge of Eighteen Mile Creek and those of the Lake Shore, are considered in detail. Lists of fossils found in the various beds are not given, but such lists will be found in the author's paper on the F aunas of the Hamilton Group of Eighteen Mile Creek and Vicinity. As far as this guide treats of the Hamilton group, it is based directly on that paper. And constant references are made to it in the text. In chapter three of Part I., an attempt is made to present in popular form the succession of geological events in this region, as revealed in the sections described in the earlier chapters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology of Rand Hill and Vicinity, Clinton County: The Area Comprised in the Mooers Atlas Sheet Whether the Lorraine shales, which overlie the Utica Slate in the Mohawk valley, were ever deposited in the Champlain valley is a question which can not at present be answered. If so, no trace Of them has yet been found. Be that as it may, the downward movement which had been in progress so long, ceased after the laying down Of the Utica or else of the Lorraine shales, and was succeeded by a movement in the contrary direction which carried the whole district above sea level, where it has, for the most part, remained ever since.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the Geology and Paleontology of the Schoharie Valley in Eastern New York Yet in all its history there has not been a geologic map of the region prepared except on an insignificant scale and no adequate account of its formations and structure have heretofore been given. It is to meet this condition, to provide students of geology and paleontology with a suitable map and guide to this attractive region that I have asked Professor Graban to prepare the work that follows. The Schoharie valley presents a geologic section almost nu equaled ia this State for its completeness. It begins low in the series with the last stages of the Lower Siluric (lorraine) and runs high into the base of the Upper Devonic; its localities are compactly assembled and easily accessible. The valley is beau tiful. Fertile. Hospitable and well supplied with the conveniences of living. The spot is ideal for the pursuit of an intimate ac quaintance with a very considerable and typical representation of New York geology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Paleozoic Stratigraphy of New York The route back to Albany follows the shore line of glacial Lake Iroquois for some distance, then crosses the belt of Medina rocks to Rochester. Here is seen the gorge of the lower Genesee River, with its section of the early Silurian beds. Remarkable glacial features are displayed along the route lead ing east to Syracuse. The Salina beds, which inclose valuable salt and gypsum deposits, are encountered on this stretch. The Clinton beds are found in their full development between Syracuse and Utica, where a detour is made to Trenton Falls, one of the historic localities for New York geology. Thence the way leads down the Mohawk Valley, affording a section from the Potsdam to the Frankfort, with another detour north to Sara toga Springs, over the Adirondack pre-cambrian formations for some distance, and into Albany.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Configuration of the Rock Floor of Greater New York Accurate maps - The early importance of Manhattan Island in com mercial and economic lines and its entry upon great engineering enter prises which require a penetration of the rock floor have greatly facilitated the work of the structural geologist within the area. As early as 1821 the city was laid out, and the gridiron of numbered streets and avenues has not only been responsible for a precision and accuracy of the early maps, rarely obtainable elsewhere, but has given to even casual geological observations unusual value. Randall's map of the island, submitted in sections between the years 1811 and 1821, now preserved in'the Office of the commissioner of public works, gives the precise locations of all the old farms in relation to watercourses and topography. It comprises four volumes of 92 sheets of map, size 25 by 37 inches, on scale of 100 feet to the inch. General Viele's map, on the scale of feet to the inch, was published in 1874, 'z and is based upon Randall's map. It shows the original shore line of the island, the mainland, the drainage system, the topography, and the location of each exposure south of Manhattanville, all superimposed upon the gridiron of streets and avenues. The accuracy of this map has been abundantly attested by engineers, real estate men, and others, who habitually use it, and, so far as the exposures of rock are con cerned, it has been tested by the writer, both by comparison with the early reports of geologists upon Manhattan Island and by examination in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New York State Museum, January, 1905: Geology of the Vicinity of Little Falls, Herkimer County The area comprised in the Little Falls atlas sheet lies mostly north of the Mohawk river between East Canada and West Canada creeks. The Mohawk runs across the sheet near its southern edge. The Canada creeks diverge and run out of, the sheet limits, East Canada to the east, and West Canada to the west, about midway between the Mohawk and the north border of the sheet. The map extends over 15' of latitude, 43 to 43 15' n., and 15' of longitude, 74 45' to 75 w., comprising about 218 square miles. Its geographic association is with the Adirondack highland region and the Mohawk valley lowland. South of the Mohawk the altitude rises quickly to that of the' dissected plateau region of southern New York, this being wholly without the map limits. The lowland is worn down on a belt of rocks which are weak as compared with those to the north and the south. It is much nar rower here than farther west, for the reason that rocks which here are resistant and hence belong to the plateau district, become both weaker and thicker as they are followed to the west, so that the belt which they underlie becomes merged with that of the low land.
