The Devonian was a peculiar period, characterized by simplified plate tectonic configurations, climatic overheating and widely flooded continents. The bloom of fishes and ammonoids, extensive reef complexes, and the conquest of land indicate major biosphere innovations, punctuated by many global events, including two of the biggest mass extinctions. The Devonian was the first system for which subdivisions were formally defined. This was achieved by significant advances in pelagic biostratigraphy. The chronostratigraphic framework and interdisciplinary techniques allow us to correlate intervals or sudden events across facies boundaries, in order to reconstruct the sedimentary and evolutionary history of the system with highest precision. This volume honors the lifetime stratigraphic achievements of Michael Robert House (1930-2002). Based on case studies from Europe, North Africa and North America, it shows how the combination of biostratigraphy, chemostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy and event stratigraphy can contribute to a much deeper understanding of both regional and global environmental change.

"Boothia Uplift is a major structural feature that extends north from Boothia Peninsula to the northwestern extremity of Devon Island. On Somerset Island and Boothia Peninsula it consists of Precambrian crystalline rocks and Proterozoic sediments that are flanked by Cambrian to Lower Devonian platform-type sedimentary rocks. This report deals with strata of Late Silurian to Early Devonian age, the time of the principal crustal movements that produced the Uplift." --
