  • A Pictorial Summary of the Life and Work of George Patrick Leonard Walker
    A pictorial summary of the life and work of George Patrick Leonard Walker SCOTT K. ROWLAND1* & R. S. J. SPARKS2 1Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Hawaii at Manoa, 1680 East–West Road, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA 2Department of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1RJ, UK *Corresponding author (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: George Patrick Leonard Walker was one of the fathers of modern volcanology. He worked in many parts of the world and contributed to the understanding of a huge range of volca- nological processes. He was a field geologist at heart, and one of his greatest skills was the ability to quantify volcanological ideas – not with obscure statistical treatments or complex numerical models, but with clear graphical relationships supported by tremendous amounts of carefully col- lected field data. Here we present some glimpses of his life and work in photographs and diagrams. George Walker was born on 2 March 1926 in Iceland, as well as to India, Italy, the Azores and London. In 1939, when he was 13, the family Africa, among other locations. In 1978 George moved to Northern Ireland. In 1948 and 1949, moved to the University of Auckland and in 1982 respectively, George received his Bachelors and he moved to the University of Hawaii. Over the Masters degrees from Queen’s University, Belfast. span of his career he visited almost every volcanic In 1956 he completed his PhD at the University of region in the world, including Australia, the Azores, Leeds with a dissertation on secondary minerals in the Canary Islands, Chile, China, Costa Rica, igneous rocks of Northern Iceland.

  • Educators Guide
    EDUCATORS GUIDE 02 | Supervolcanoes Volcanism is one of the most creative and destructive processes on our planet. It can build huge mountain ranges, create islands rising from the ocean, and produce some of the most fertile soil on the planet. It can also destroy forests, obliterate buildings, and cause mass extinctions on a global scale. To understand volcanoes one must first understand the theory of plate tectonics. Plate tectonics, while generally accepted by the geologic community, is a relatively new theory devised in the late 1960’s. Plate tectonics and seafloor spreading are what geologists use to interpret the features and movements of Earth’s surface. According to plate tectonics, Earth’s surface, or crust, is made up of a patchwork of about a dozen large plates and many smaller plates that move relative to one another at speeds ranging from less than one to ten centimeters per year. These plates can move away from each other, collide into each other, slide past each other, or even be forced beneath each other. These “subduction zones” are generally where the most earthquakes and volcanoes occur.
