Abstract
VARIOUS lines of scientific investigation are now converging on the chronological problems of geology, prehistoric archaeology and palaeontology. The investigation of sedimentary deposits in Scandinavia by De Geer, and A. E. Douglass's tree-ring chronology in the south-western United States are instances in point. The application of the results of the study of solar radiation to the Pleistocene chronology of Central Europe has been reviewed by Dr. Friedrich E. Zeuner in relation to the evidence of geology, prehistoric archaeology and palaeontology (Geol. Mag., 72, 19, 350-376; 1935).
