Land, sea, and air...we've got you covered!  Join us for a captivating evening at c.1949 on their beautiful outdoor patio.  We are pleased to feature Dr. Paul Wetmore, who will tell us how scientists study faults and geology to determine earthquake potential...is Florida at risk???  Next, we are excited to have Mary Stanko, an expert on birds of prey and the crucial roles they play in the ecosystem, join us with a few fabulous feathered friends.  Finally, we are lucky to have Professor Jeff Ryan share his knowledge and experiences as a deep sea geochemist.  You won't want to miss their stories and fascinating experiences!

Dr. Paul Wetmore

Faults and the Assessment of Hazards in Earthquake Country-  A presentation of how scientists study faults, and the geology of regions most at risk of their effects, to make accurate assessments of the seismic/earthquake hazards that those faults pose. Mostly using examples from the southern California region.

Mary Stanko

Badass Birds ...of prey- Birds of prey are specialized in many ways - keeping checks and balances in the natural food chain. When it comes to injury or involuntary capture... how are our native natural ecosystems affected?

Prof. Jeff Ryan

Jeff Ryan is a geochemist whose talk will focus on the geochemistry and petrology of the Izu-Bonin subductive trench. Jeff has taken part in two oceanic deep sea drilling scientific cruises on the JOIDES Resolution and will discuss life on the ship and some of the results of these expeditions.
