Why did early Islamic cartographers place south at the top of their maps? Who invented the magnetic compass? And why has 'the west' become an intensely political term, as well as a geographical one? Here, in conversation with Spencer Mizen, Jerry Brotton answers the most intriguing questions on the history of the four cardinal points: north, east, south and west. (Ad) Jerry Brotton is the author of The Four Points of the Compass: The Unexpected History of Direction (Allen Lane, 2024).

In this captivating episode, we delve deep with Laura Trethewey, the acclaimed author of "The Deepest Map," to explore the monumental endeavor of mapping the ocean floor. Laura takes us on a journey beneath the waves, into a world where only a fraction has been charted, and where the deep sea holds secrets yet to be revealed.Discover the groundbreaking efforts of scientists, investors, and adventurers like James Cameron and Victor Vescovo, as they navigate untested submersibles into the earth's final frontier. Laura sheds light on the pioneers who have pushed the boundaries of oceanography, including the remarkable contributions of Marie Tharp, a trailblazing woman in the male-dominated field of geology.This episode is not just about mapping the unknown; it's a conversation about the intersection of humanity's origin story and the environmental impact of this race to the ocean's depths. As Laura eloquently discusses, the future of our planet hinges on understanding and preserving these vast, hidden terrains. We probe the complex questions surrounding the exploitation of the seafloor's resources and the political power plays at the heart of this global endeavor.Join us as Laura Trethewey brings to light the wonders, challenges, and ethical dilemmas of ocean floor exploration.

Marie Tharp (1920-2006) illuminated one of the most mysterious parts of our planet: the bottom of the ocean. On land, she pored over data, while her male colleagues went out on expeditions… until she finally got a chance to join them, and experience the watery world she'd been mapping from afar.  This month, we're talking about adventurers – women who refused to be confined. They pushed the boundaries of where a woman could go, and how she could get there. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn't help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we'll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more.  Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.  Womanica was created by Liz Kaplan and Jenny Kaplan, executive produced by Jenny Kaplan, and produced by Grace Lynch, Maddy Foley, Brittany Martinez, Edie Allard, Lindsey Kratochwill, Adesuwa Agbonile, Carmen Borca-Carrillo, Taylor Williamson, Ale Tejeda, Sara Schleede, and Abbey Delk.

Lange war der Boden der Ozeane in weiten Teilen unerforscht: Forscherinnen und Forscher glaubten an eine flache und wenig interessante Wüste tief unter dem Meer, während Geologen sich komplett auf die Gesteine an Land konzentrierten. Denn die Kontinente galten den meisten ohnehin als unbeweglich. Das änderte sich erst in den 1950er Jahren, als sich Reihe geophysikalischer Messmethoden durchsetzte. Echoortung mittels Sonar und seismische Messungen erlaubten eine Abtastung des Meeresbodens und der Gesteine darunter. In dieser Zeit begann die US-Geologin und Kartografin Marie Tharp am Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in New York City, die gewaltigen Datenberge der neuen Messgeräte auszuwerten. Ihre Tätigkeit war trotz ihrer Qualifikation die einer Assistentin. Doch Tharp schuf nicht nur die erste Karte des Atlantikbodens; sie entdeckte dabei ein 65.000 Kilometer langes Grabenbruchsystem, das den gesamten Planeten umspannt. Tharp gab mit dieser gewaltigen Entdeckung den Anstoß zur Entwicklung der modernen Plattentektonik. Karl zeichnet in dieser Podcast-Folge das Wirken von Marie Tharp und ihrer Kollegen in Lamont nach, die zunächst gewaltige Widerstände unter den Geologen hervorrief. Als sich wenige Jahre später die Plattentektonik als akzeptierte Hypothese durchsetzte, geriet Maries Rolle in Vergessenheit.

Deep beneath the ocean exist vast mountain ranges, some of which are bigger than the ones above water!

The ocean is huge and full of wonders, so it's no surprise our listeners have lots of question about it. In this episode we'll travel to the bottom of the ocean to find out what the ocean floor is made of, and learn how geologist Marie Tharp helped us understand how amazing it is. We'll also delve into why the ocean is salty but lakes and rivers aren't, and sing along with the Salty Sea Shanty. Plus a brand new mystery sound!

In de dinotijd brak de wereld in stukkenIn deze aflevering staan Maarten en Gijs stil bij de wereld waarin de dinosauriërs leefden. Dat was, bijna letterlijk, een heel andere dan die van nu. Want toen de eerste dinosoorten ontstonden konden ze namelijk nog lopend de hele aarde over. Alle werelddelen lagen bijeen geklemd in één groot supercontinent: Pangea. Maar dat bleef niet zo: tijdens de gehele dinotijd versplinterde Pangea en vormde de aarde zich naar de wereldkaart die we nu kennen. Een proces waarbij gigantische krachten vrijkwamen en wat ook grote gevolgen had voor de ontwikkeling van dino's overal ter wereld. Wie bedenkt dit?Gijs en Maarten gaan samen met paleontoloog en geoloog Melanie During terug in de tijd. Wie bedacht als eerste dat de continenten zelf in beweging waren, en wie onderzocht en bewees die theorie van ‘continental drift'? Melanie vertelt ons over de Duitse Alfred Wegener, die kwam met het idee, maar die niet geloofd en veel uitgelachen werd. ‘Girl talk' En we horen vervolgens hoe de Britse wetenschapster Marie Tharp de gegevens van sonarscans van de zeebodem analyseerde en hoe ze bewijzen vond voor beweging van de aarde. Maar óók zij werd lang niet geloofd: haar argumenten werden weggezet als ‘girl talk'. Reden voor de band The Amoeba People om een speciaal nummer aan haar leven te wijden. De weg van continentenInmiddels is de theorie van Wegener en Tharp algemeen geaccepteerd. Maar hoe wérkt ‘continental drift' en hoe weten we welke weg onze werelddelen de afgelopen jaren precies hebben afgelegd? Melanie laat ons zien hoe we dat exact kunnen terugvinden en bewijzen. Botenverhuur kan opdoekenEn natuurlijk gaan we terug naar de dinotijd en we leggen je uit wat er in de drie dinotijdperken Trias, Jura en Krijt precies veranderde. Maarten en Melanie gaan als toetje nog wat verder en vertellen welke mogelijke vulkanische rampen ons in de toekomst nog wachten, en waarom duikscholen en botenverhuur aan de middellandse zee over 50 miljoen jaar niet meer bestaan!Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

His work has appeared in National Geographic, The New York Times, The Atlantic, Scientific American, Gizmodo, Atlas Obscura and elsewhere. He trained as a volcanologist, earning a doctorate in the subject, but then realized that telling people stories of spectacular eruptions and off-world scientific shenanigans brought him more joy than academia ever could. His upcoming book — Super Volcanoes: What They Reveal about Earth and the Worlds Beyond is out now - go buy a copy!I must admit, it took Jesse and I a while to realize that the book is called Super Volcanoes - two words.  In other words, all volcanoes are super.  Most volcanologists strongly dislike the term Supervolcanoes - one word, that is typically used to describe Yellowstone National Park.  Robin has a huge personality which made for a very fun interview.  We talked about Hawaii, Yellowstone, deep ocean volcanoes, Tonga, and Marie Tharp to name just a few.  Tune in to get all the details.  You won't be disappointed.——————————————————Instagram: @planetgeocastTwitter: @planetgeocastFacebook: @planetgeocastEmail: planetgeocast@gmail.comWebsite: https://planetgeocast.buzzsprout.com/

When learning about Earth history, many of us learn about the Alfred Wegener, the Father of Plate Tectonics, but do you know about the *woman* whose discovery influenced the theory of plate tectonics? Let's talk about Marie Tharp, the geologist and cartographer who discovered the mid-Atlantic ridge and thrust forth a new understanding of one of our planet's most ancient processes. The story behind her discovery mirrors that of many woman scientists; her ideas dismissed by male colleagues who ultimately wound up taking credit for her work once they realized she was right all along. I for one propose we call her the Mother of Plate Tectonics and Proving Men Wrong. Download the Callin app for iOS and Android to listen to this podcast live, call in, and more!

You know how plate tectonics are definitely real and the oceans are full of seamounts and shit? Yeah, well, no one else did until 1959. Josie from A Hill to Die On joins Sarah to talk about Marie Tharp and how she provided pivotal insight into the seafloor morphology and seafloor mapping that allowed scientists to bring their understanding of how the Earth works into the 20th century.

A palavra cientista, geralmente, remete a figuras masculinas. As contribuições femininas para o avanço da ciência foram pouco valorizadas ao longo da história da humanidade. Ao longo da história muitas mulheres desempenharam papéis importantes e contribuíram de modo relevante para o avanço científico, em diversas áreas da ciência. No cenário mundial algumas cientistas notáveis foram pioneiras em suas áreas de atuação como Marie Curie, Peggy Whitson e Marie Tharp. No Brasil também há cientistas notáveis como Nise da Silveira, Bertha Lutz e Ana Maria Primavesi, entre outras. Atualmente há um número crescente de mulheres na ciência, apesar de enfrentarem muitos desafios. A atuação das mulheres na ciência tem crescido nas últimas décadas, e vem sendo cada vez mais valorizada, mas ainda é uma área com maior visibilidade masculina. Na atual pandemia que estamos vivendo, muitas mulheres têm ganhado destaque, com grandes contribuições para a ciência. Nesta Live as professoras vão abordar a importância do pioneirismo feminino na ciência. Live transmitida em 01/03/2021

NASA launches its new robotic mission to Mars. The rover, Perseverance, will land in a 50 kilometre wide crater which looks like it was filled by a lake about 4 billion years ago - the time when life on Earth was getting started. Mission scientist Melissa Rice explains why this is one of the most promising places on Mars to continue the search for past life on the red planet. Japanese and US scientists have revived microbes that have been buried at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean for 100 million years. Sampled from compacted mud 70 metres below the seafloor and beneath 6 kilometre of water, Yuki Morono and Steve D'Hondt admit they struggle to understand how the bacteria have survived for so long. Science in Action celebrates the little unknown oceanographer Marie Tharp who in the late 1950s discovered the mid-Atlantic ridge which helped to launch the plate tectonics revolution in earth sciences. It would be Tharp's 100th birthday this week. New research this week suggests that coronaviruses capable of infecting humans have been in bats for 40 to 70 years, and that there may be numerous and as yet undetected viruses like the Covid-19 virus in bat populations with the potential to cause future pandemics. Their message is that we should be sampling and testing wild bat colonies much more extensively than currently. Their findings provide further evidence against the unfounded claim that the Covid-19 virus originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. Roland Pease talks to Dr Maciej Boni at Pennsylvania State University. Listener Avalon from Australia wants to know why people use conspiracy theories to explain shocking events. Are we more likely to believe conspiracy theories in times of adversity? What purpose do conspiracy theories serve in society?

Marie Tharp's "aha" moment came in 1952. When arranging profiles she created of the North Atlantic ocean floor, she noticed a V-shaped indentation that ran along the center and matched those of other profiles she laid out. She thought it resembled some sort of rift valley, similar to the geological formation in East Africa, but this one deep on the seabed. Her findings which appeared to support the notion of continental drift were dismissed by her closest colleagues as scientific heresy and labeled as "girl talk". Making it her mission to find the truth, Tharp continued to collect more and more data from different sources and eventually was proved right. Her discoveries led to the acceptance of plate tectonics, a geological pillar of understanding Earth's systems. In this episode of Pod of the Planet, we celebrate the life of Marie Tharp and the inspiration she's been and continues to be to many scientists today. Vicky Ferrini, a marine geologist at Lamont, is one of those scientists and she speaks about her work in carrying on Tharp's legacy and her current project to map out the entire seafloor by 2030 (14:20). In the first part of this episode Kyu talks with Marie DeNoia Aronsohn, Lamont's director of communications, welcoming her to the Pod of the Planet family (2:20). This past week we've been celebrating Tharp's achievements with blog posts, webinars, giveaways, and more. Follow along here: marietharp.ldeo.columbia.edu

In this episode, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest discuss the theory that the earth is expanding. They cover the early 20th century origins of the theory and it's bid to replace the contracting earth theory. After that, they discuss the role Marie Tharp's cartography played in overturning the expanding earth in favor of plate tectonics. Lastly, they discuss the main booster of expanding eartherism today, comic book artist Neal Adams and his disgust over subduction.

The publication of a map of the floor of the Atlantic ocean in 1957 by an American female cartographer, Marie Tharp, helped to change forever the way we view our world. Her discovery of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge was eventually taken as evidence of the theory of plate tectonics. Yet her work was initially dismissed as 'girls' talk', her colleague geologist Bill Ryan tells Louise Hidalgo.Picture: Marie Tharp working on a map of the ocean floor at Columbia University in the 1960s.

Hoy nos despedimos de Stephen Hawking recordando uno de sus consejos: “Acuérdate de mirar hacia arriba, a las estrellas, y no hacia abajo, a tus pies.” Hablamos de los últimos descubrimientos de la nave espacial Juno sobre Júpiter. Mostramos la existencia de Zealandia, un nuevo continente descubierto al Este de Australia. Recordamos el descubrimiento de Marie Tharp, la mujer que demostró que el fondo de los océanos era muy distinto a lo que se creía a mediados del siglo XX y encontró las evidencias que corroboraban la teoría de la deriva continental. Contamos la a historia del descubrimiento de Neptuno. Comentamos los hallazgos de conchas coloreadas y pinturas murales en cuatro cuevas españolas que tienen edades muy anteriores a la llegada del Homo Sapiens, son arte Neandertal. Y terminamos respondiendo a la pregunta ¿Existen moléculas de izquierdas y de derechas?

Marie Tharp and Bruce Heezen were oceanographers, cartographers and geologists at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Science Observatory of Columbia University from the late 1940s to 1977. Marie Tharp's papers in the Geography and Map Division contain more than 32,000 pieces including a handmade globe of the earth showing the ocean floor and the location of the mid-Atlantic Ocean ridge. This globe served to reveal positive data regarding the concept of continental drift and plate tectonics.
