SPECIAL LECTURE: Jack Horner: Dinosaurs from the Inside Out favorite hills while on vacation from his job at Princeton. He was handed some small fossil bones, and immediately recognized their significance as embryonic dinosaur remains. This led to the discovery of the first dinosaur nesting ground, in 1979, and only the second example world-wide of dinosaur eggs. From this early information, Jack has continued to make dinosaur paleontology headlines, as he used clues in the fossil record to infer dinosaur herding behavior, parental care, and nesting and reproductive strategies. More recently, Jack has teamed up with colleagues in California and Berkely to begin the field of "dinosaur paleohistology," using microscopic studies of dinosaur bone to infer growth rates, which in turn may be physiological indicators.

Glaciers And Icefields Heading north to Alaska means going to glacier heaven! Discover how glaciers are formed and just what glaciers do. http://www.fs.fed.us/r10/tongass/forest_facts/resources/geology/icefields.htm
Extractions: A laska has hosted a glacier-favoring mixture of climate and topography for the last 12.5 million years. During the Pleistocene age, when the climate was 3 to 9 degrees Fahrenheit colder than it is today, an ice sheet covered a large expanse of the earth, including the islands of southeastern Alaska. Today there are still over 100,000 glaciers in Alaska, although ice covers only 5 percent of the state. The icefields and glaciers of the Tongass National Forest are some of the few remnants of the once-vast ice sheets. In Southeast Alaska, maritime climate and coastal mountains work together to create favorable conditions for glaciation. The icefields straddle the Coast Mountain Range on the United States-Canadian border, directly in the path of the Pacific Ocean's prevailing winds. Moist air flows toward the mountains, rises, cools, and releases snow and rain. Annual snowfall on the Juneau Icefield exceeds 100 feet, and mild Southeast summers assure that winter snow accumulation exceeds summer snowmelt at higher elevations.
Plate Tectonics: History Of An Idea. Explains the early observation of the similar coastlines and undersea continental shelves and how this led to the development of theory of a an ancient single land mass. Discusses early contributors to the field like Alfred Wegener. http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/geology/techist.html
Extractions: Plate Tectonics : The Rocky History of an Idea Close examination of a globe often results in the observation that most of the continents seem to fit together like a puzzle: the west African coastline seems to snuggle nicely into the east coast of South America and the Caribbean sea; and a similar fit appears across the Pacific. The fit is even more striking when the submerged continental shelves are compared rather than the coastlines. In 1912 Alfred Wegener (1880-1930) noticed the same thing and proposed that the continents were once compressed into a single protocontinent which he called Pangaea (meaning "all lands"), and over time they have drifted apart into their current distribution. He believed that Pangaea was intact until the late Carboniferous period, about 300 million years ago, when it began to break up and drift apart. However, Wegener's hypothesis lacked a geological mechanism to explain how the continents could drift across the earths surface as he proposed. Wegener's drift hypothesis also provided an alternate explanation for the formation of mountains (orogenesis). The theory being discussed during his time was the "Contraction theory" which suggested that the planet was once a molten ball and in the process of cooling the surface cracked and folded up on itself. The big problem with this idea was that all mountain ranges should be approximately the same age, and this was known not to be true. Wegener's explanation was that as the continents moved, the leading edge of the continent would encounter resistance and thus compress and fold upwards forming mountains near the leading edges of the drifting continents. The Sierra Nevada mountains on the Pacific coast of North America and the Andes on the coast of South America were cited. Wegener also suggested that India drifted northward into the asian continent thus forming the Himalayas.
Ray Murray The use of geology and soil science in criminal and civil matters. The science is described and references are provided along with the author s personal and http://www.forensicgeology.net/
Extractions: CONTACT Ray Murray first encountered forensic geology in 1973 when he was teaching geology at Rutgers University. An agent from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms walked into Murray's office with a bag of dirt, looking for answers. Since then, Murray has worked as a forensic geologist and, with then fellow Rutgers professor John Tedrow, in 1975 published the first textbook on the science, Forensic Geology Murray served as vice president and professor of geology at the University of Montana from 1977 to 1996 and continues to work in forensic geology. His latest book "Evidence from the Earthforensic geology and criminal investigation" has been published by Mountain Press in May 2004. See the January 2005 issue of GEOTIMES for more Forensic Geology

Lost River Cave Includes tour highlights, hours, rates, discount coupon, history, hydrology and geology, and information about Friends of the Lost River organization. http://www.lostrivercave.com/
Extractions: The Lost River Cave and Valley have been attractive and useful to humans since the first Native Americans inhabited this place about 11,000 years ago. This unique site, donated to Western Kentucky University in 1985, was created by geological events causing the collapse of a large cave system to form the mile-long Cave Valley in which the Lost River rises to the surface in four places or "windows." The most prominent of these begins at a "blue hole spring" and flows through the Valley for a distance of a few hundred yards before entering what is considered the largest cave opening in the Eastern United States. After flowing into the Cave entrance, the river becomes "lost" and courses for several miles under the city of Bowling Green, Kentucky , emerging at Jennings Creek , a tributary of the Barren River The Lost River Cave and Valley is leased from Western Kentucky University by the Friends of The Lost River , a nonprofit organization formed in 1990 to preserve, restore, and operate the site for educational purposes.
