This set of papers arose from a Discussion Meeting held in the Department of Geology & Applied Geology, University of Glasgow, on 9–10 September The aim of the Meeting was to review the progress which had been made in resolving some of the more controversial aspects of the pre-Silurian Caledonide geology of the British Isles and Scandinavia. THE Caledonian orogenic event in Britain is divisible into a number of episodes of deformation and recrystallization 1. In the low grade Caledonian metamorphic belt (here referred to as the ``Southern Caledonides'') which lies to the south of the Scottish Highlands and includes its continuation south-west into Ireland, there is a considerable amount of structural and stratigraphic evidence.

The Caledonian orogeny was a mountain-building era recorded in the northern parts of Ireland and Britain, the Scandinavian Mountains, Svalbard, eastern Greenland and parts of north-central Europe. The Caledonian orogeny encompasses events that occurred from the Ordovician to Early Devonian, roughly – million years ago ().It was caused by the closure of the Iapetus Ocean.

Abstract. The British Caledonides fall naturally into two belts. The northern belt comprises middle Proterozoic to Middle Cambrian metasediments which have been subjected to the tectonothermal events of the Grampian orogeny (c. Ma). The story of the Channel Islands during the war is the history that could so nearly have come to pass for the rest of us.
Based on interviews with over a hundred islanders who lived through it, this book tells that story from beginning to end, opening the lid on life in Hitler’s British s: About this book. Hawkmoths, the subject of this AIDGAP fold-out chart, are some of the most colourful and conspicuous moths in the British Isles.
The largest resident moth, the privet hawkmoth, is the size of a mouse, and can be seen flying in gardens as far north as Lincolnshire. The bee fauna of the British Isles contains representatives of nearly all the bee subfamilies found worldwide.
This two-volume handbook allowed the identification of the plus bee species recorded including the small group of species reported from the Channel Islands but unknown from the rest of the British Isles. British Isles, group of islands off the northwestern coast of Europe.
The group consists of two main islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and numerous smaller islands and island groups, including the Hebrides, the Shetland Islands, the Orkney Islands, the Isles of Scilly, and the Isle of Man.
The Caledonides is the impressively long mountain belt that is part of the visible evidence of the assembly of the supercontinent of Pangea.

Journal of .The British Isles are a group of islands in the North Atlantic off the north-western coast of continental Europe, consisting of the islands of Great Britain, Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Hebrides and over six thousand smaller isles.
They have a total area of aboutkm 2 (, sq mi) and a combined population of almost 72 million, and include two sovereign states, the Republic of.The British Isles comprise Laurentian and Avalonian terranes that were brought together at the closure of the Iapetus Ocean at Ma (Chew and Strachan, ) (Fig.
