Taylor built at Toronto an international reputation. He wrote on large, important topics : environment and nation, world peace and future world population. He explored new areas in geography.
Glacial geomorphology of Bonney drift, Taylor valley, Antarctica
The aim of this paper is to document the response of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) near the Dry Valleys to the excess warmth of the last interglaciation by establishing the behavior of Taylor Glacier. The AA. present a model for the deposition
by Taylor Glacier of Bonney drift in central Taylor Valley. Bonney drift is important because it records the penultimate advance of Taylor Glacier through central and lower Taylor Valley.
Geochronology of Bonney drift, Taylor Valley, Antarctica : evidence for interglacial expansions of Taylor glacier
This study focuses on glaciogenic sediments in Taylor Valley, which features Taylor Glacier, an outlet of the peripheral Taylor Dome of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS). Here, the AA. present the geochronology of Bonney drift.

Griffith Taylor's palimpsest theory of the Dry Valleys of Victoria Land, Antarctica
Griffith Taylor was the first geomorphologist to work in the Dry Valleys of southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. He proposed a multistage model in which earlier cirque erosion was later swamped by expanding outlet glaciers. Subsequently
these glaciers retreated leaving the present form of the valleys. The topography retained the imprint of each episode, hence his name palimpsest theory. The A. summarises later research and compares Taylor's theory with current views.

Le Britannique Griffith Taylor (1880-1963) fut le fondateur de la géographie au Canada lorsqu'il créa en 1935 le Département de Géographie de l'Université de Toronto. Il fit partie de l'expédition britannique antarctique de 1910/1912 organisée par

Geochemical data and geophysical measurements from a 554-m ice-core from Taylor Dome, East Antarctica, provide the basis for climate reconstruction in the western Ross Embayment through the entire Wisconsinan and Holocene. Finally, the AA. discuss
the significance of the Taylor Dome record in the context of Antarctic ice sheet configuration, regional outlet and alpine glaciers, and global climate dynamics.
Limited pliocene glacier extent and surface uplift in middle Taylor Valley, Antarctica
The purpose of this paper is to assess the degree of stability/instability of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet during the Pliocene by dating and mapping surficial deposits in middle Taylor Valley in the Dry Valleys region of southern Victoria Land.
Ignorance and historical geographies of Aboriginal exclusion : evidence from the 2007 Bouchard-Taylor Commission on Reasonable Accommodation
The AA. undertake a geographically sensitive analysis of Quebec's 2007 Bouchard-Taylor Commis-sion to demonstrate how ignorance of Aboriginal realities works strategically to sustain unequally occupied rhetorical and material space. They analyze how
. The case of the Bouchard-Taylor Commission demonstrates how ignorance operates in highly sophisticated and often readily justifiable ways to uphold settler interests.

After graduating in chemistry, Eva Taylor taught science and then studied geography at the University of Oxford, where she was trained in the holistic conception of the discipline. She then wrote successful textbooks for schoolchildren, while
Griffith Taylor and the SE Australian Highlands : issues of data sources and testability in interpretations of long-term drainage history and landscape evolution
The A. summarises briefly Griffith Taylor's reconstruction of the drainage history of SE Australia, and how it came to be incorporated into the early plate tectonic interpretations of the evolution of Tasman-margin landscapes. He then uses
the existence of viewpoints that do not agree with Taylor's interpretation as a springboard for a consideration of the conceptual methodological problems associated with reconstructing long-term landscape evolution, and specifically the history of denudational
The Taylor Dome Antarctic O 18 record and globally synchronous changes in climate
The AA. compare the Taylor Dome oxygen isotope record with the isotope records of Vostok and Byrd Station, Antarctica, and GISP2, Greenland. The features of the Taylor Dome δ O 18 record suggest that climate changes were essentially synchronous
