how it could affect paleontological resources,” Foss said. “We work on and review a lot of environmental impact statements and assessments, making sure they are adequate for paleontology. “We’re also really big in the planning and management process of public lands. If there is going to be a pipeline, right-of-way or an energy corridor that may affect a lot of paleontological resources, I get involved and explain how it will affect those resources or not affect them.” A natural maven, Foss’ role

Surface Geology Relationship in the Chambers-Clover Creek Watershed Danielle Skibiel This research regarding recent water quality analysis collection in collaboration with present surface geologic data was inspired by observations made while doing field work for the Environmental Methods 350 course at Pacific Lutheran. This project is derived from an interest in connecting those surface water qualities to surface geologic units, properties, and aquifers present within our Chambers-Clover Creek

Quick FactsWhy Study AnthropologyIf you think anthropology is limited to the study of stones and old bones, think again! Though anthropology does look at stones and bones, it also examines the politics, medicine, kinship, art and religion of various peoples and times. This makes the study of anthropology a complex task, for it requires an understanding of the basics of numerous disciplines such as geology, biology, art and psychology. Regardless of the specific area being studied, the essence

upper division course in one’s expertise, and topical lower division geoscience courses. Participation in extended field trip experiences, the general education program, and mentoring senior capstone research projects is also expected. Ph.D. in Geology or closely related field is required. ABD will be considered, but Ph.D. must be in hand by September 1, 2015. Pacific Lutheran University is a comprehensive university of 3,100 students that offers a challenging curriculum integrating the liberal arts

. Participating students will interact closely with faculty and graduate student mentors to develop and advance research projects revolving around oceanographic data analysis. Students will attend overview lectures on fundamental problems in different oceanography fields, including physical, biological, and chemical oceanography as well as marine geology and geophysics. They will gain a basic understanding and hands-on experience in data science techniques, including time series analysis and machine learning

Anthropology OverviewThe word anthropology comes from the Greek words anthropos, meaning “human”, and logos, which refers to doctrine, theory or science. Loosely defined, anthropology is the comprehensive study of humankind with an emphasis on culture. It is a holistic field which can touch on multiple specific disciplines, including humanistic approaches from history to literature the empirical or “natural” sciences from geology to physics, as well as behavioral studies such as sociology to

The Big Idea: Interested in joining PLU’s Anthropology and Geoscience Departments in a fun day long field trip to explore the intersection of geology and anthropology? Two sites will be explored through this lens: Alder Lake was formed as an impoundment dam in the 1940’s to generate the electricity we use as a society. What are the results? We will view the dam itself and local landscape on the way to the second stop of the day. Ohanapecosh Campground southeast corner of Mt Rainier National
