A brief critical analysis is made of the increase in the degree of geological knowledge of the country since the elaboration of the Geological Sketch of the Cuban Island at a scale of 1: 2 000 000 (Fernández de Castro, 1883), first of Cuba and of Ibero-America, until the most recent Digital Geological Map of Cuba at scale 1: 100 000 (Pérez Aragón, 2016). Cuba and its surroundings are a geological mosaic in the southeast corner of the North American plate with rocks from many different origins, from Proterozoic to Quaternary, extended along the southern border of the plate. From the Eocene, this belt has been dissected by several great faults, related to the development of some great oceanic depressions (Cayman trough and Yucatan basin). The fossil record of Cuba, which covers approximately the last 200 million years of life on Earth, is rich in very varied fossils, witnessing a wide diversity of organisms, both animals and pl | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Cuban Geology; Geological Cartography; Marine Geology; Fossil Record; Stratigraphy and Tectonics; Quatern | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-67798-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-67800-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-67798-5Series ISSN 2364-6438 Series E-ISSN 2364-6446 | issn_series | 2364-6438 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021 |
