Field Volcanology:
A Tribute to the Distinguished Career of Don Swanson
Don Swanson, who received the GSA Min-
eralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, and Vol-
canology Division’s Distinguished Geologic
Career award in 2016, has adopted a detailed,
� eld-oriented approach to studying problems
of great volcanologic importance across a
range of compositions and spatio-temporal
scales. Swanson’s work has resulted in a
series of fundamental contributions that have
advanced understanding of the Columbia
River flood basalts, Cascade volcanic arc,
and Hawaiʻi, and his insights have been ap-
plied not only around the world, but across
the solar system. This volume emphasizes
the role of field volcanology as a window
into better understanding volcanic processes
past and present, and highlights, in particular,
those places and processes where Swanson’s
insights have been particularly impactful.

Geologic Excursions in Southwestern North America
Edited by Philip A. Pearthree
This volume, prepared as part of the Geological Society of America Annual Meeting in Phoenix, includes � eld guides covering aspects of the spectacular geology of southwestern North America. Field guides tackle the geology of the southern Colorado Plateau, from paleoenvironments of Petri� ed Forest National Park, to Jurassic sand dunes of southern Utah, to the San Francisco Volcanic Field, to awesome Grand Canyon. Appropriately for the 50th anniversary of the � rst lunar landing, one trip visits sites in northern Arizona that helped prepare astronauts
for their missions. Several guides address aspects of the Proterozoic to Cenozoic tectonic development of the Transition Zone between the
Colorado Plateau and the Basin and Range. Exploring the Basin and Range, guides feature Laramide tectonism and ore deposit development, features associated with large-magnitude Ceno-
zoic extensional tectonism, large Miocene volcanic centers in northwestern Arizona, and tectonism and development of the lower
Colorado River. Three � eld guides explore various aspects of northwest-ern Mexico, including tectonics and ore deposits of Sonora, fauna and paleo environments of Colorado River delta deposits, and volcanism in central Baja California. Finally, a guide analyzes anthropogenic earth � ssures that have developed in the Phoenix metropolitan area.

The Edwards Aquifer: The Past, Present, and Future of a Vital Water Resource
Edited by John M. Sharp Jr., Ronald T. Green, and Geary M. Schindel, 2019
The Edwards aquifer system is one of the great karstic aquifer systems of the world. It supplies water for more than 2 million people and for agricultural, munic-ipal, industrial, and recreational uses. The Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone) Aquifer in the San Antonio, Texas, area was the first to be designated a sole source aquifer by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1975. The Edwards Aquifer also hosts unique groundwater, cave, and spring ecosystems. This 27-chapter memoir reviews the current state of knowledge, current and emerging challenges to wise use of the aquifer sys-tem, and some of the technologies that must be adopted to address these challenges.

The Physical Geography and Geology of the Driftless Area: The Career and Contributions of James C. Knox
Edited by Eric C. Carson, J. Elmo Rawling III, J. Michael Daniels, and John W. Attig, 2019
Over the course of his 43-year career, James C. Knox conducted seminal research on the geomorphology of the Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin. His research covered wide-ranging topics such as long-term landscape evolution in the Driftless Area; responses of floods to climate change since the last glaciation; processes and tim-ing of floodplain sediment deposition on both small streams and on the Mississippi River; impacts of European settlement on the land-scape; and responses of stream systems to land-use changes. This volume pres-ents the state of knowledge of the physical geography and geology of this unglaciated region in the otherwise- glaciated Midwest with contributions written by Knox prior to his passing in 2012 and by a number of his former colleagues and graduate students.

250 Million Years of Earth History in Central Italy: Celebrating 25 Years of the Geological Observatory of Coldigioco
Edited by Christian Koeberl and David M. Bice, 2019
Central Italy has been a cradle of geology for centuries. For more than 100 years, studies at the Umbria and Marche Apennines have led to new ideas and a better understanding of the past, such as the Cretaceous– Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary event, or the events across the Eocene–Oligocene transition from a greenhouse to an icehouse world. The Umbria-Marche Apennines are entirely made of marine sedimentary rocks, representing a continuous record of the geotectonic evolution of an epeiric sea from the Early Triassic to the Pleistocene. The book includes reviews and original research works accomplished with the support of the Geological Observatory of Coldigioco, an independent research and educational center, which was founded in an abandoned medieval hamlet near Apiro in 1992.

The Gigantic Markagunt and Sevier Gravity Slides Resulting from Mid-Cenozoic Catastrophic Mega-Scale Failure of the Marysvale Volcanic Field, Utah, USA
By Robert F. Biek, Peter D. Rowley, and David B. Hacker, 2019
The Markagunt and Sevier gravity slides are gigantic landslides that resulted from gravitationally induced catastrophic failure of the southern flank of the Oligocene to Miocene Marysvale volcanic field. Each is nearly 100 km long with runouts over the for-mer land surface >35 km; together they span 7000 km2 and rank among Earth’s largest terrestrial landslides. Basal cataclastic lay-ers, injectites, pseudotachylyte, deformed clasts, and a variety of kinematic indicators demonstrate catastrophic emplacement, which was preceded by slow gravitational spreading of the volcanic field. This volume offers a history of their discovery, our cur-rent understanding of the gravity slides, and a guide to particularly instructive exposures for which the authors document their con-clusions about the size, age, and significant structural features of these newly discov-ered features.

Field Excursions in the Carolinas: Guides to the 2019 GSA Southeastern Section Meeting
Edited by John Chadwick and Steven C. Jaume’, 2019
This guidebook provides detailed itineraries of three field trips associated with the 2019 GSA Southeastern Section Meeting in Charleston, South Carolina. The first chapter outlines the fossiliferous deposits near Charleston histor-ically referred to as the “Ashley Phosphate Beds,” which include sharks, rays, sea turtles, whales, and other Oligocene to Pleistocene fossils. The second chapter explores how hydrology has shaped Charleston and how engineers, public officials, and citizens incorporate new technologies in design to increase community resiliency. The third chapter describes the variety of modern traces that can be observed in the coastal setting of Edisto Island near Charleston. These include burrows, tracks, borings, and other signs of terrestrial and marginal-marine invertebrates and vertebrates in sediments, shells, and wood.

Tectonics, Sedimentary Basins, and Provenance: A Celebration of the Career of William R. Dickinson
Edited by Raymond V. Ingersoll, Timothy F. Lawton, and Stephan A. Graham, 2018
Through a remarkable combination of intel-lect, self-confidence, engaging humility, and prodigious output of published work, Wil-liam R. Dickinson influenced and challenged three generations of sedimentary geolo-gists, igneous petrologists, tectonicists, sandstone petrologists, archaeologists, and other geoscientists. A key figure in the plate-tectonic revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, he explained how the distribution of sediments on Earth’s surface could be traced to tectonic processes, and is widely recognized as a founder of modern sedimen-tary basin analysis. This volume consists of 31 chapters related to Dickinson’s research interests; many of the authors are his former students, their students, and their students’ students, demonstrating his continuing pro-found influence. The papers in this volume are an impressive tribute to the depth and breadth of Bill Dickinson’s contributions to the geosciences.

Circum-Arctic Structural Events: Tectonic Evolution of the Arctic Margins and Trans-Arctic Links with Adjacent Orogens
Edited by Karsten Piepjohn, Justin V. Strauss, Lutz Reinhardt, and William C. McClelland, 2019
The circum-Arctic region has received considerable attention over the past sev-eral decades with vigorous debate focused on topics such as mechanisms for opening the Eurasian and Amerasian basins, the importance of plume-related magmatism in the development of the Arctic Ocean, and mechanisms for ancient terrane translation along the Arctic margins. In recognition of the 25th anniversary of the Circum-Arctic Structural Events (CASE) program, an inter-national polar research effort organized and led by the Bundesanstalt für Geowissen-schaften und Rohstoffe (BGR) of Germany, this volume presents results from 18 major field expeditions involving over 100 interna-tional geoscientists from a broad spectrum of disciplines. The resulting publication focuses on the Proterozoic to Cenozoic tec-tonic evolution of the circum-Arctic region with correlations to adjacent orogens.

Exploring Extreme and Unusual Geology in the Stable Midcontinent: Field Excursions for the 2019 GSA South-Central, North-Central, and Rocky Mountain Sections Joint Meeting
Edited by Marcia K. Schulmeister and James S. Aber, 2019
The flat-lying sedimentary strata of the North American midcontinent are typically thought of as uniform and predictable. However, midcontinent geology contains a record of exciting geologic events and pro-cesses. The papers in this volume examine four geologic phenomena associated with the continental interior: Pennsylvanian and Permian cyclothems, the origin of a massive Permian salt deposit, Cretaceous kimberlite intrusions, and Quaternary glacial geology. The guides cover processes and events that are unique to the geology of Kansas and highlight important economic and rich his-torical influences of these geologic features.

The Art of Finding Springs, Second Edition: A Translation of L’Art de Découvrir les Sources, Seconde Édition
By Abbé Jean-Baptiste Paramelle; transl. by Patricia Bobeck, 2019
Abbé Paramelle (1790–1875) published The Art of Finding Springs in 1856 as a how-to manual for finding groundwater. Paramelle began his field research into springs on a karst plateau in southwestern France. Between 1833 and 1854, upon request, Paramelle explored 40 of France’s depart-ments and found groundwater in 10,000 places based on his observational method, which used geology and geomorphology, at a time when these sciences were in their infancy. Paramelle’s method was used until the 1970s to find groundwater in the French Department of Lot. Although the book was translated into German and Spanish in the mid-1800s, this is the first English transla-tion. The translator has included detailed notes and an introduction providing exten-sive historical background about this largely unknown hydrogeologist.

Chesapeake Bay Impact Structure—Development of “Brim” Sedimentation in a Multilayered Marine Target
By Henning Dypvik, Gregory S. Gohn, Lucy E. Edwards, J. Wright Horton Jr., David S. Powars, and Ronald J. Litwin, 2018
The Chesapeake Bay impact structure is perhaps the best documented example of a small group of multilayer, marine-target impacts formed in continental shelves or beneath epeiric seas. In this multi disciplinary study, new sedimentological and stratigraph-ical data and results—mainly from three Chesapeake Bay brim cores (Watkins School, Langley, and Bayside)—are compared to and compiled with key crater core data. This vol-ume provides detailed understanding of the impact-related processes and sedimentation, their interaction and relative timing, and their products in the “brim,” the target-sediment layer in the area outside the transient cavity.

Field Volcanology: A Tribute to the Distinguished Career of Don Swanson
Edited by Michael P. Poland, Michael O. Garcia, Victor E. Camp, and Anita Grunder, 2018
Don Swanson, who received the GSA Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, and Volcanology Division’s Distinguished Geo-logic Career award in 2016, has adopted a detailed, field-oriented approach to studying problems of great volcanologic importance across a range of compositions and spa-tio-temporal scales. Swanson’s work has resulted in a series of fundamental contri-butions that have advanced understanding of the Columbia River flood basalts, Cascade volcanic arc, and Hawai‘i, and his insights have been applied not only around the world, but across the solar system. This volume emphasizes the role of field volcanology as a window into better understanding volcanic processes past and present, and highlights, in particular, those places and processes where Swanson’s insights have been par-ticularly impactful.

Women and Geology: Who Are We, Where Have We Come From, and Where Are We Going?
Edited by Beth A. Johnson, 2018
Women have been a part of the story of geology from the beginning, but they have struggled to gain professional opportuni-ties, equal pay, and respect as scientists for decades. Some have been dismissed, some have been forced to work without pay, and some have been denied credit. This vol-ume highlights the progress of women in geology, including past struggles and how remarkable individuals were able to over-come them, current efforts to draw positive attention and perceptions to women in the science, and recruitment and mentorship efforts to attract and retain the next gener-ation of women in geology. Chapters include the first American women researchers in Antarctica, a survey of Hollywood disaster movies and the casting of women as geol-ogists, social media campaigns such as #365ScienceSelfies, and the stories of the Association for Women Geoscientists and the Earth Science Women’s Network and their work to support and mentor women in geology.

Museums at the Forefront of the History and Philosophy of Geology: History Made, History in the Making
Edited by Gary D. Rosenberg and Renee M. Clary, 2018
Natural history museums have evolved over the past 500 years to become vanguards of science literacy and thus institutions of democracy. Curiosity about nature and distant cultures has proven to be a power-ful lure, and museums have progressively improved public engagement through increasingly immersive exhibits, partici-pation in field expeditions, and research using museum holdings, all facilitated by new technology. Natural history muse-ums have dispersed across the globe and demonstrated that public fascination with ancient life, vanished environments, exotic animals in remote habitats, cultural diver-sity, and our place in the cosmos is universal. This volume samples the story of museum development and illustrates that the histor-ical successes of natural history museums have positioned them to be preeminent facil-itators of science literacy well into the future.

Linkages and Feedbacks in Orogenic Systems
Edited by Richard D. Law, J. Ryan Thigpen, Arthur J. Merschat, and Harold Stowell, 2017
This volume explores linkages between tec-tonic processes through field, numerical modeling, and laboratory studies, concentrat-ing on feedback mechanisms within ancient and evolving orogens by which individual or linked tectonic processes may influence or predetermine the operation of other pro-cesses in space and time. Case studies cover a wide range of ancient to modern orogens: the Svecofennian of southern Finland, the Gyeonggi Massif of Korea, the Caledonides of northern Scotland, the Variscan of the East European craton, the Appalachians of the eastern United States, the European Alps and Dinarides, north Cascades of the northwestern United States, and the Hima-laya. Emphasis is placed on integration between data sets developed from analytical approaches, including field mapping, seismic reflection profiling, strain analyses, petrol-ogy, isotopic dating, and numerical modeling studies of thermal evolution.

The Tectonic Setting and Origin of Cretaceous Batholiths within the North American Cordillera: The Case for Slab Failure Magmatism and Its Significance for Crustal Growth
By Robert S. Hildebrand and Joseph B. Whalen, 2017
In this Special Paper, Hildebrand and Wha-len present a big-picture, paradigm-busting synthesis that examines the tectonic setting, temporal relations, and geochemistry of many plutons within Cretaceous batholithic terranes of the North American Cordillera. In addition to their compelling tectonic syn-thesis, they argue that most of the batholiths are not products of arc magmatism as com-monly believed, but instead were formed by slab failure during and after collision. They show that slab window and Precambrian TTG suites share many geochemical simi-larities with Cretaceous slab failure rocks. Geochemical and isotopic data indicate that the slab failure magmas were derived dom-inantly from the mantle and thus have been one of the largest contributors to growth of continental crust. The authors also note that slab failure plutons emplaced into the epi-zone are commonly associated with Cu-Au porphyries, as well as Li-Cs-Ta pegmatites.

Tectonosedimentary Relations of Pennsylvanian to Jurassic Strata on the Colorado Plateau
By William R. Dickinson, 2018
William R. Dickinson (1931–2015) formally retired in 1991, but he didn’t stop working, researching, and writing. His work with University of Arizona professor George Geh-rels on identifying sandstone provenance using detrital-zircon U-Pb geochronology led to the determination that much of the Pennsylvanian to Jurassic sandstone of the Colorado Plateau was derived from the orogenic belt now associated with the Appalachian Mountains. Further detrital-zir-con studies led to Dickinson preparing this publication in order to identify key aspects of the sedimentary and tectonic history of Mesozoic strata of the Colorado Plateau and directly adjacent areas. Dickinson divided the strata into seven depositional systems, but completed writing on only the lower five (Moenkopi, Chinle, Glen Canyon, San Rafael, Morrison) before his death in July 2015. The manuscript, however, was comprehensive in its treatment of upper Paleozoic strata and the lower five Mesozoic “deposystems,” and an abstract and concluding text by Jon Spencer helped to complete the work.

Geology and Tectonics of Subduction Zones: A Tribute to Gaku Kimura
Edited by Timothy Byrne, Michael B. Underwood, Donald Fisher, Lisa McNeill, Demian Saffer, Kohtaro Ujiie, and Asuka Yamaguchi, 2018
This volume highlights the career of Dr. Gaku Kimura, professor emeritus of geosciences at the University of Tokyo, by showing the range of research he has inspired. The first three chapters provide context for the growth of accretionary prisms by examin-ing the thermal structure of the ocean crust, and the sedimentary facies and potential fluid pathways in the Shikoku Basin. Next, two chapters look at the regional-scale structure of the plate boundary and the rheology and hysteresis of the hanging wall of the subduction zone in SW Japan. The following five chapters discuss the progres-sive deformation and thermal maturation of sediments along accretionary margins from Japan to New Zealand to western North America. The final two chapters look at the deformation processes near the subduct-ing plate interface, with the last chapter proposing a link between outcrop-scale observations and seismic slip.

Ancient Oceans, Orogenic Uplifts, and Glacial Ice: Geologic Crossroads in America’s Heartland
Edited by Lee J. Florea, 2018
This volume, prepared for the 2018 GSA Annual Meeting in Indianapolis, includes compelling science and field trips in Indi-ana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, and Ohio. A wealth of geologic and human history col-lides in the Midwest, a confluence that led to the growth of America’s industry over the past two centuries. Guides in this volume depict this development from the estab-lishment of New Harmony, the birthplace of American geology, through the construction of Indianapolis’s modern skyline. Underpin-ning this growth were the widespread natural resources—limestone, coal, and water—that built, powered, and connected a growing nation. Take a journey through the Heartland to sand dunes, outcrops, quarries, rivers, caves, and springs that connect Paleozoic stratigraphy with the assembly of Gondwana, continental glaciation with Quaternary geo-morphology and hydrology, and landscape with the human environment.

*The Pleistocene is divided into four ages, but only two are shown here. What is shown as Calabrian is actually three ages—Calabrian from 1.80 to 0.781 Ma, Middle from 0.781 to 0.126 Ma, and Late from 0.126 to 0.0117 Ma. The Cenozoic, Mesozoic, and Paleozoic are the Eras of the Phanerozoic Eon. Names of units and age boundaries usually follow the Gradstein et al. (2012), Cohen et al. (2012) , and Cohen et al. (2013, updated) compilations. Numerical age estimates and picks of boundaries usually follow the Cohen et al. (2013, updated) compilation. The numbered epochs and ages of the Cambrian are provisional. A “~” before a numerical age estimate typically indicates an associated error of ±0.4 to over 1.6 Ma.

Managing the Gulf Coast Using Geology and Engineering
By Richard A. Davis Jr., Nicole Elko, and Ping Wang, 2018
The Gulf of Mexico is an excellent region for considering coastal management as it applies to the physical barrier/inlet system because of the coast’s varied environments, from remote areas to huge urban popula-tions, and its tidal inlets—some natural, some dredged, and others that have been structured for more than a century. In discussing options for managing and pro-tecting the various elements of the barrier/inlet system, the authors consider each approach in terms of cost, logistics, and past successes or failures. Anthropogenic impact as well as the problems generated by natural processes (from hurricanes to seaweed invasions) are covered, as is the impact of management decisions, providing decision makers with a valuable resource filled with examples and information.
