This issue of the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences is dedicated to Professor Glen Caldwell in honour of his extensive contributions to the field of paleontology and scientific publishing. After receiving his Ph.D. degree from the University of Glasgow in 1957, Dr. Caldwell joined the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan, where he stayed for more than 30 years. During his tenure, he led the way in launching a new integrated curriculum, including paleobiology, geochemistry, and geophysics, and in organizing and equipping a vigorous research program. Dr. Caldwell also organized two international symposia on Cretaceous rocks of the Western Interior Basin of North America. Over the years he served on and made distinctive contributions to a wide variety of national and international professional organizations, including the American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature, GAC, NSERC, and the International Union of Geological Sciences. Dr. Caldwell served as Vice-President (Research) of The University of Western Ontario from 1988 to his retirement in 1996. He continues to teach and serve various scientific organizations, and he remains a strong advocate for basic research grants.Ce numéro du Journal canadien des sciences de la Terre est consacré au professeur Glen Caldwell en l'honneur de ses très grandes contributions à la paléontologie et aux publications scientifiques. Après avoir reçu son doctorat (Ph.D.) de l'Université de Glasgow en 1957, le Dr Caldwell s'est joint au Département des sciences géologiques de l'Université de la Saskatchewan, où il a œuvré durant plus de 30 ans. Durant sa titularisation, il a été l'instigateur d'un nouveau curriculum intégré, incluant la paléobiologie, la géochimie et la géophysique en plus d'organiser et de doter en équipement un programme de recherche dynamique. Le Dr Caldwell a aussi organisé deux symposiums internationaux sur les roches du Crétacé du bassin intérieur ouest de l'Amérique du Nord. Au cours des années, il a été membre de diverses organisations professionnelles nationales et internationales dont l'American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature, l'AGC, le CRSNG et l'Union internationale des sciences géologiques; la contribution qu'il leur a apportée revêt un caractère distinct. Le Dr Caldwell a été vice-président (recherche) pour l'Université de Western Ontario de 1988 jusqu'au moment de sa retraite en 1996. Il enseigne toujours et continue à siéger au sein de divers organisations scientifiques et, de plus, il défend vigoureusement les subventions à la recherche de base. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

EARTH sciences ,ENVIRONMENTAL sciences - Abstract
The Canadian Cordillera in central British Columbia has seen the Mesozoic subduction of an oceanic terrane; the amalgamation of volcanic-arc terranes; continued intermittent Mesozoic compression and magmatism; and Tertiary wrenching, extension and magmatism. Except in its northernmost mountain ranges, the area is extensively covered in glacial drift and thin veneers of Tertiary volcanic rocks. In 1994, a group of scientists and technologists believed they could understand that cover, see through it, and discover the components of that collision and extensional orogen. They would apply modern techniques of isotopic and paleontological geochronology; lake-sediment, till, and plant geochemistry; detailed gravity, magnetic, radiometric, paleomagnetic, and electromagnetic surveys; and isotopic and trace element lithochemistry, as they conducted extensive bedrock and surficial mapping. This special issue summarizes a cross-section of the scientific contributions derived from that mapping conducted under the auspices of the Nechako NATMAP Project. It demonstrates the absolute necessity of applying modern isotopic and paleontologic geochronology to understand the Phanerozoic geology of the Cordillera. It emphasizes the necessity of detailed aeromagnetic surveys (500 m or less line spacing) in looking through covered terranes at anything more than 1 : 250 000 scale. And, it shows the immense utility of applying various geochemical techniques to solve geological problems and establish baselines for future research and economic development. Bedrock and surficial mapping in the central Cordillera, using these and other techniques, have established the nature and timing of Mesozoic crustal growth, Tertiary crustal thinning, and the associated formation of mineral deposits.Au Mésozoïque, la Cordillère canadienne du centre de la Colombie-Britannique a subi la subduction d'un terrane océanique, la fusion de terranes d'arcs volcaniques, de la compression et du magmatisme intermittent et, au Tertiaire, du décrochement, de l'extension et du magmatisme. À l'exception des chaînes de montagnes les plus septentrionales, la région est abondamment recouverte de sédiments glaciaires et de minces placages de roches volcaniques datant du Tertiaire. En 1994, un groupe de scientifiques et de technologues ont cru qu'ils pouvaient comprendre ces recouvrements, les percer et découvrir les composantes de cet orogène de collision et d'extension. Ils appliquèrent des techniques modernes de géochronologie isotopique et paléontologique; de géochimie des sédiments de lac, des tills et des plantes; des relevés gravimétriques, magnétiques, radiométriques, paléomagnétiques et électromagnétiques détaillés ainsi que de la lithochimie isotopique et d'éléments traces, alors qu'ils entreprirent une vaste cartographie de la roche-mère et de la surface. Ce numéro spécial résume une vue d'ensemble représentative des contributions scientifiques dérivées de cette cartographie effectuée dans le cadre projet NATMAP Nechako. Il démontre le besoin absolu d'effectuer de la géochronologie isotopique et paléontologique moderne afin de comprendre la géologie du Phanérozoïque de la Cordillère. Il met l'emphase sur la nécessité de relevés aéromagnétiques détaillés (espacement des lignes de 500 m ou moins) pour étudier des terranes recouverts lors de travaux à une échelle plus grande que 1 : 250 000. Il démontre aussi la très grande utilité d'utiliser diverses techniques géochimiques pour résoudre des problèmes géologiques et établir les lignes de référence pour la recherche et le développement économique futurs. Par l'utilisation de ces techniques et autres, la cartographie du roc et des dépôts de surface de la Cordillère centrale a établi la nature et le séquencement de la croissance de la croûte au Mésozoïque, de l'amincissement de la croûte au Tertiaire et de la formation de gisements de minéraux associée à ces événements.[Traduit par la Rédaction] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
