Lecture on How California's Geology Came to Be
Join Friends of the Arcata Marsh president and retired high school biology teacher Elliott Dabill to learn about why the Golden State has such diverse wildlife, climate, and landforms..His talk is the culmination of years of research by Elliott to get to the (rock) bottom of why our state has mountains like Alaska, more deserts types than Mexico, basin and range like Nevada, and a rather unruly set of ranges that parallel each other. Wouldn’t it be fun if we can tie all those things together, based on the same cause?
Elliott has several degrees and certificates, including as a California Naturalist. He is a volunteer docent for the Bureau of Management Arcata Field Office, leading Trinidad Lighthouse tours within the California Coastal National Monument and Salmon Pass tours within the Headwaters Forest Reserve. He enjoys connecting people to our local natural and cultural history. He has led walks through the Arcata Marsh, local redwood forests, and historic Old Town Eureka.
This 1-hour talk will be followed by a Q&A session and carried live on Zoom at https://humboldtstate.zoom.us/j/88248246788?pwd=AuQSlOmC4Zwkq4hzWctlzTySkjKyjY.1#success
