Global Tectonic Regionalization for Seismological Data Analysis

A global tectonic regionalization, GTR1, has been constructed for use in seismological studies of aspherical heterogeneity. Three oceanic regions are defined by equal increments in the square root of crustal age (25and lO0-m.y. isochrons), and three continental regions are distinguished according to their generalized tectonic behavior during the Phanerozoic (Precambrian shields and platforms, P...

One Hundred Successive and Successful Cæsarean Sections in Cases of Contracted Pelvis *Read 14th May 1924.

In the first place I attribute my success to a great extent in substituting craniotomy for Caesarean section in cases where, in addition to rupture of the membranes of many hours' duration, there is also a probability of the existence of septic infection through repeated vaginal examinations having been made before the patient came under personal observation. In the early years of my operative ...
