MGS- Maurrasse 1982

The purpose of this field guide is to provide a general view of the geology of the Republic of Haiti, including some aspects of the geology of the island of Hispaniola as a whole. It is by no means an exhaustive look at the geology of the area. Nonetheless, the transects cover enough of the main geologic features of Haiti to allow a good appreciation of its geology and its relation to the remainder of the island as a whole. I will also discuss some of the new data available on the areas covered, and their implications concerning the geologic history of Hispaniola.
