Normandy brings a dozen different images to mind: William the Conqueror, the D-Day landings, Mont-St-Michel; the bleak landscape of the Cotentin coast, the sparkling summertime playground of the Côte Fleurie; sumptuous châteaux, historic abbeys, famous gardens; the orchards of the Auge, the picture postcard scenery of the Suisse Normande; Monet’s home at Giverny, the Cabourg immortalized by Proust – or perhaps it’s cider, calvados and camembert. Whatever your list, it will barely scratch the surface of this rich and rewarding region.

Путеводитель по Киеву. Фотографии и описания лучших достопримечательностей и архитектурный памятников Киева. Среди городов мира, гордящихся славной историей, уходящей корнями в далёкое прошлое, Киев занимает одно из самых почетных мест. И не удивительно, ведь и княжеская могущественность, и зарождение восточнославянского православия, и казацкая демократия, и европейская культура, - все эти определения непосредственно связаны с Киевом. Обосновавшиеся на « святых» холмах, « Русские Афины » (Н. Гоголь) притягивают своей красотой, изысканностью, живописными пейзажами и причудливой архитектурой миллионы туристов ежегодно.

Working in the field contributes a crucial element to our knowledge and understanding of Earth processes, whether it is the prediction of volcanic eruptions, understanding periods of past climate change recorded in sedimentary deposits, deciphering an episode of mountain building, or working out where to fi nd mineral resources. Without primary fi eld data and geological samples of the highest quality, further scientifi c study such as sophisticated isotope measurements or the reconstruction of past life assemblages and habitats is at best without context, and at worst, completely meaningless. Geological fi eldwork can be both fun and challenging. It provides the chance to work outdoors under a range of conditions and to explore our natural world. It also provides an often unparalleled opportunity to travel and visit localities as more than a tourist. Indeed it often takes you to unspoilt parts of the world that tourists rarely penetrate. Almost all fi eldwork enables us to work as part of a team, often with international partners, and this can be one of the most rewarding experiences of being a geologist because we can learn from each other.
