Harker whose major theoretical suggestion was that the general character of different regions of igneous rocks might be related to the tectonic environment-the conditions of temperature and pressure under which the rocks were formed. Following the studies at Shap, Harker showed that the rocks surrounding the Shap granite had been reconstituted without significant changes in bulk composition. See ODNB.
