Robert Smith, a distinguished Research Professor and Emeritus Professor of Geophysics at the University of Utah, has spent nearly 40 years studying volcanic activity in the Greater Yellowstone. His robust career led him to the Centennials in the 1960s where he performed geologic mapping following the Lake Hebgen earthquake. He has directed and installed seismographic networks throughout the area and co-authored, Windows into the Earth: The Geologic Story of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. On July 12th, Bob will provide a public lecture at the Taft-Nicholson. 7 pm in the Meeting Hall.
