Marshall Kay (November 10, 1904 – September 4, 1975) was a geologist and professor at Columbia University. He is best known for his studies of the Ordovician of New York, Newfoundland, and Nevada, but his studies were global and he published widely on the stratigraphy of the middle and upper Ordovician. Kay's careful fieldwork provided much geological evidence for the theory of continental drift. He was awarded the Penrose Medal in 1971. Less well known is his work for the Manhattan Project, as a geologist searching for manganese deposits. Marshall's son Robert Kay of Cornell University, daughter Elizabeth (Kay) Berner of University of Connecticut and son-in-law Robert Berner of Yale University are also geology professors. His son Richard Kay of Duke University is a biological anthropologi

  • George Marshall Kay, genannt Marshall Kay, (* 10. November 1904 in , Ontario; † 3. September 1975 in Englewood, New Jersey) war ein US-amerikanischer Geologe und Professor an der Columbia University. Er wurde bekannt mit seinen Untersuchungen im Ordovizium von New York, Neufundland und Labrador sowie Nevada. Darüber hinaus publizierte er Arbeiten, die sich auf weltweiter Basis mit der Stratigraphie des Mittleren und Oberen Ordoviziums beschäftigten. Diese Arbeiten brachten ihm den Spitznamen „Mr. Ordovician“ ein. Seine gründliche Feldarbeit lieferte viele Beweise für die Kontinentaldrift und die Plattentektonik. Auf ihn geht sowohl das heute noch gültige Klassifikationsschema lithostratigraphischer Einheiten wie auch der Begriff der palinspastischen Rekonstruktion zurück, der Versuch, die (de)

  • George Marshall Kay ( (Canada), 10 november 1904 – Leonia (Verenigde Staten), 3 september 1975) was een geoloog en professor aan de Columbia University. Kay is het best bekend van zijn studies van het Ordovicium van New York, Newfoundland en Nevada, maar zijn onderzoekingen waren wereldwijd en hij publiceerde breed over de stratigrafie van het midden- en hogere Ordovicium. Kay's zorgvuldige veldwerk leverde veel geologisch bewijs voor de theorie van continentverschuiving. Hij kreeg de uitgereikt in 1971. Minder bekend is zijn werk voor het Manhattan project, als een geoloog zoekend naar mangaanafzettingen. (nl)
  • George Marshall Kay foi um geólogo e professor da Universidade de Columbia. Ele é mais conhecido pelos seus estudos sobre o Ordovício em Nova Iorque, Terra Nova e Nevada, mas os seus estudos foram globais e ele publicou amplamente sobre a estratigrafia do Ordovício Médio e Superior. O trabalho de campo cuidadoso de Kay forneceu muitas evidências geológicas para a teoria da deriva continental. Ele recebeu a Medalha Penrose em 1971. Menos conhecido é o seu trabalho para o Projeto Manhattan como geólogo em busca de depósitos de manganês. (pt)
