Seeing Time: Geologic Clues to Our Ancient Earth
Earth’s beautiful scenery is old by human standards, but it’s much younger than the actual rock that underlies it. Rocks tell stories of much older periods in Earth’s history. Seeing Time, a slide show presentation by University of Oregon geologist Marli Miller, explores deep geologic time through field observations and landscape images. After introducing some basic geologic principles, she will lead the audience on a visual field trip across the Colorado Plateau and into Death Valley, California.
Marli Miller, PhD , is senior instructor and associate research professor in the geological sciences at the University of Oregon. She has been taking geological photographs since before starting graduate school at the University of Washington in the mid-1980s. She is currently writing a book on western American geology as seen through national parks.
Please RSVP on the CFI Portland Meetup calendar so that we know to look for you!
