奇珍異寶閣 #4:極客聖誕版

“我們地質學家帶著禮物遠道而來,穿梭于田野和噴泉,荒原和高山,追隨著那顆化石之星……”正如在EGU網路上的這個系列帖子(第一部分第二部分)中探討的那樣,第一批聖誕之夜,三位國王追隨星星送來的禮物早已與地質學相關。

My name is David Bressan and I'm a freelance geologist working mainly in the Austroalpine crystalline rocks and the South Alpine Palaeozoic and Mesozoic cover-sediments in the Eastern Alps. I graduated with a project on Rock Glaciers dynamics and hydrology, this phase left a special interest for quaternary deposits and modern glacial environments. During my research on glaciers, studying old maps, photography and reports on the former extent of these features, I became interested in history, especially the development of geomorphologic and geological concepts by naturalists and geologists. Living in one of the key area for the history of geology, I combine field trips with the historic research done in these regions, accompanied by historic maps and depictions. I discuss broadly also general geological concepts, especially in glaciology, seismology, volcanology, palaeontology and the relationship of society and geology.
