Records lessons learnt from miltary experience in World War I and II. It also contains perspectives from America which show how, in warfare, military geologists irrespective of nationality have pursued tactical and strategic terrain analysis, fortifications and tunnelling, and resource acquisition, defence installations, and field constructions and logistics. It shows how in peace-time military geologists train for wartime operations and may be involved in peace-keeping and nation-building deployments.

U.S. military lands are part of the public trust and the level of awareness of sustainability and land-use issues has risen significantly in recent years. Ehlen (U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center) and Harmon (U.S. Army Research Office) present 14 articles that look at the use of engineering geology principles and their applications to both military operations and environmental issues, although military operations and the environment are not always treated together. Topics include battlefield terrain evaluation, predicting fracture systems in enemy underground facilities, the geoenvironmental legacy of the Rock of Gibraltar military engineering, and erosion trends at Fort Leonard Wood.

"Eighteen chapters address the complex yet critical aspects of the role of geosciences in military undertakings. The chapters cover a wide range of expertise drawn from the broad area of geology, geomorphology, geography, geophysics, engineering geology, hydrogeology, cartography, environmental science, remote sensing, soil science, geoinformatics, and related disciplines that reflect the multidisciplinary nature of military geology"--

This book complements the Geological Society’s Special Publication 362: Military Aspects of Hydrogeology. Generated under the auspices of the Society’s History of Geology and Engineering Groups, it contains papers from authors in the UK, USA, Germany and Austria. Substantial papers describe some innovative engineering activities, influenced by geology, undertaken by the armed forces of the opposing nations in World War I. These activities were reactivated and developed in World War II. Examples include trenching from World War I, tunnelling and quarrying from both wars, and the use of geologists to aid German coastal fortification and Allied aerial photographic interpretation in World War II. The extensive introduction and other chapters reveal that ‘military geology’ has a longer history. These chapters relate to pre-twentieth century coastal fortification in the UK and the USA; conflict in the American Civil War; long-term ‘going’ assessments for German forces; tunnel repair after wartime route denial in Hong Kong; and tunnel detection after recent insurgent improvisation in Iraq.

Excerpt from Military Geology and Topography: A Presentation of Certain Phases of Geology, Geography and Topography for Military Purposes The organization of Students' Army Training Corps in American educational institutions involves a readjustment of courses of instruction. The extent to which the modification of existing courses and the introduction of new courses is desirable has been indicated in a circular transmitted to colleges and universities by the Committee on Education and Special Training of the War Department. This circular includes the statement: "The branches of earth science which contribute most directly to military needs are Military Geology and Geography including Meteorology and Military Mapping," and recommends that some course or courses covering these topics be offered in each institution where geology or geography is taught. This action was taken because the Great War has demonstrated the desirability of more widely diffused knowledge of geology as an aid in conducting military operations and in the solution of economic problems relating to raw materials. In response to many requests for guidance in the presentation of the courses which were called for by the Committee of the War Department, the National Research Council through its Division of Geology and Geography has prepared Military Geology and Topography, Introductory Meteorology and a syllabus on the Geography of Europe as text books for students. In the preparation of Military Geology the following have collaborated: Professor Nevin M. Fenneman, University of Cincinnati; Professor C. P. Berkey, Dr. A. K. Lobcck, and Dr. Frederick Morris, Columbia University; Professor W. W. Atwood and Professor J. B. Woodworth, Harvard University; Professor H. L. Fairchild, University of Rochester; Dr. Willis T. Lee, Dr. T. Wayland Vaughan, O. E. Mcinzcr, and P. S. Smith, United States Geological Survey; Dr. J. E. Spurr, United States Bureau of Mines; Professor H. F. Cleland, Williams College; Professor C. K. Leith and Professor W. J. Mead, University of Wisconsin; Professor W. E. Ford, Professor Herbert E. Gregory, and Dr. George E. Nichols, Yale University. Valuable criticism has been received from M. R. Campbell, N. C. Grover, J. C. Hoyt, B. H. Lane, J. L. Ridgway, and G. M. Wood of the United States Geological Survey, and from others whose duties in connection with the war prevented fuller participation.

In warfare, military geologists pursue five main categories of work: tactical and strategic terrain analysis, fortifications and tunneling, resource acquisition, defense installations, and field construction and logistics. In peace, they train for wartime operations and may be involved in peace-keeping and nation-building exercises. In addition to the introductory paper this volume includes 24 papers, covering selected aspects of the history of military geology from the early 19th century through the recent Persian Gulf war.

This book is a collection of papers presented at the 11th International Conference of Military Geoscience that was held in 2015. The conference included discussion on a diverse range of geosciences, including military history, military geology, teaching geology from a military prospective, geological influence on the battlefield, and environmental and cultural issues related to management of military lands. Geology and geography have played a significant role in military history, from providing the stone for primitive tools and weapons, to the utilization of terrain in offensive and defensive strategies. Specific to this volume, deserts comprise nearly a third of the Earth's surface and have been the site of numerous battles where the dust, heat, and a lack of food and water have provided challenges to military leaders and warriors. This book examines the role of deserts in past and modern warfare, the problems and challenges in managing military lands in desert regions, and how desert environmental conditions can impact military equipment and personnel. This proceedings volume should be of interest to scholars, professionals, and those interested in military history, warfare, geology, geography, cultural resources, general science, and military operations.
