Can the forces of nature teach us about resilience and community? Join us as we welcome Lori Dengler, a retired geophysics professor with 37 years of experience at Humboldt State University, who shares her fascinating journey from academia to community education. Lori reminisces about her vibrant days in the geology department, highlighting the magnetic personality of Gary Carver. She also delves into her current engagement with the Osher Lifelong Learning Program (OLLI), where she continues to inspire with Brown Bag Talks on engaging geological topics and recounts her own adventures in the geological wonderland of Iceland.
Experience the awe-inspiring realm of plate tectonics and the monumental forces that have shaped our world over millions of years. We'll take you through the historical evolution of tectonic theory from its 19th-century origins to the groundbreaking plate tectonic model of the 1960s. By drawing vivid analogies, such as comparing the Earth's crust to a partially hard-boiled egg, we break down complex concepts into relatable terms. Our discussion includes real-world examples like the mighty Himalayas and California's unique triple junction, and we explore the broader influence of tectonic movements on climate and ocean currents.
In the face of natural disasters, how prepared are we as a community? This episode sheds light on the critical importance of disaster preparedness, particularly in earthquake-prone coastal regions. We recount the aftermath of the December 2022 earthquake in California and draw parallels with global natural disasters in countries like Japan, Chile, and Papua New Guinea. Lori underscores the importance of community resilience, effective disaster response, and individual preparedness. We also celebrate the human spirit by discussing the role of art, fear, and friendship in our lives, giving a special nod to the artistic contributions of Amy Uweke. Don’t miss this enlightening and thought-provoking conversation!
