26 lis 2021 · Assaults on science have led scientists to demand “politics-free/values-free” science that safeguards science against error by grounding it in “politically neutral” evidence. Considering racial disparities in lead poisoning, HIV/AIDS, and COVID-19, we show the solution is doomed.
24 wrz 2024 · Arnold Henry Guyot was a Swiss-born American geologist, geographer, and educator whose extensive meteorological observations led to the founding of the U.S. Weather Bureau. The guyot, a flat-topped volcanic peak rising from the ocean floor, is named after him. He studied at the College of Neuchâtel.
The first is the “death-by-emergence-and-submergence” hypothesis that postulates that guyots are drowned reefs. Regional tectonic and eustatic (sea level) changes cause a temporary emergence of the reef above sea level followed by a rapid relative rise in sea level to drown the reef.
ABSTRACT. This article examines Arnold Guyot’s (1807-1884) studies of the physical geography of New England within the concept of “Humboldtian science.”
A series of originally submarine volcanoes has been found in the Afar Depression. Some of the volcanic structures are morphologically similar to oceanic guyots. One of them consists of strata of fi...
Guyot’s insistence upon the study of natural specimens prompted his organization of a transcontinental scientific organization – the first of its kind in the U.S. – to gather further original evidence.
