Alexander von Humboldt's 1807 "Geographie der Pflanzen in den Tropen-Ländern," mapping the relationship between elevation, temperature, precipitation, and plant species on the Chimborazo volcano in Ecuador. It illustrated for the first time how geography, climate, and biology are directly linked, and the value of interrelating knowledge across fields.
