W 100-lecie pierwszego wydania książki Alfreda Wegenera „Die Entstehung der Kontinente und Ozeane”

Mizerski M.

Przegląd Geologiczny

2015

Vol. 63, nr 11

1262--1265

The article portrays the figure of Alfred LotharWegener (1880–1930) – creator of the continental drift hypothesis. Wegener was not only the creator of geotectonic hypothesis that is famous all over the World, but his interests were very diverse. He was a meteorologist and geophysicist of atmosphere, but he carried out experiments with the genesis of lunar craters too. He was active in the research of Treys meteorite that fell to the ground on April 3, 1916, in the forest near Rommershausen in Hesia (Germany). However, his true passion was research of Greenland – he attended four expeditions to this island and during the last expedition he died. His idea is still very important in the present-day theory of plate tectonics.

Paleomagnetyzm, a odrodzenie teorii Wegenera : synopsis

This article envisages turning points in the process of implementation of the continental drift hypothesis to the knowledge on the development of the Earth’s crust. In the author’s opinion, they were most of all linked with the development of palaeomagnetism, a discipline integrating methods of geophysics and geology. Alfred Wegener has been included into the Science Hall of Fame, thanks to studies by Brunhes on inversely magnetized rocks of Auvergne, discovery of geomagnetic inversions of Icelandic lavas by Hospers, polar wander paths construction by Creer and Irving, ending with Pangea reconstruction by Bullard, Everett and Smith, bridging the concept of continental drift and plate tectonics theory.

Od dryfu kontynentów Alfreda Wegenera do tektoniki płyt

The modern theory of plate tectonics has been the basis of works of several generations of geologists and geophysicists. One of them was Alfred Wegener and his theory of continental drift. The imperfection of the theory (lack of any explanation for the mechanism of continents movement) was the driving force for further studies. The most important ones were the detailed recognition of the ocean floor, and the discovery of the rift and subduction zones.
