摘要

1923年，南非地质学家Alexander du Toit花了三个月的时间在南美洲进行勘察测绘，这促成了他1927年的开创性著作《南美洲和南非的地质比较》。杜托伊特拍摄的一些照片被公布，但大多数照片在2021年4月的一场毁灭性大火中被毁。1923年，杜托伊特乘坐Transandine铁路从阿根廷到智利的一次旅行，一些幸存的带注释的图像，给出了地点，在这里被复制。它们可能有助于识别自照片拍摄以来的一个世纪内的景观变化，例如冰川融化。

Historical photographs by South African geologist Alexander L. du Toit taken along the Transandine Railway (Argentina-Chile) in 1923

South African geologist Alexander du Toit spent three months in 1923 doing reconnaissance mapping in South America, which resulted in his seminal 1927 work “A Geological Comparison of South America and South Africa”. A few photographs taken by du Toit were published, but most were destroyed in a devasting fire in April 2021. Some surviving annotated images, giving locations, of a trip du Toit had made from Argentina to Chile on the Transandine Railway, in 1923, are reproduced here. They may help with recognizing landscape changes, such as due to melting glaciers, during the century since the photographs were taken.

期刊介绍： This journal publishes original and review articles on geology and related sciences, in Spanish or English, in three issues a year (January, May and September). Articles or notes on major topics of broad interest in Earth Sciences dealing with the geology of South and Central America and Antarctica, and particularly of the Andes, are welcomed. The journal is interested in publishing thematic sets of papers and accepts articles dealing with systematic Paleontology only if their main focus is the chronostratigraphical, paleoecological and/or paleogeographical importance of the taxa described therein.
