GSA Presidential Address and Awards Ceremony | Christopher (Chuck) Bailey Life on an Active Margin: Swimming Pools and Movie Stars

Southern California is a region of both beauty and excess that lies astride an active and sometimes feckless plate boundary. Here more than 20 million inhabitants face a set of geological and environmental challenges, some well-known and dramatic while others are subtle but ever present.  This address will include a personal take on the geology of southern California and then pivot to the critical role that geoscience must play in the future.

From Outcrop to Front Page: Translating and Communicating Earth Science. Sometimes it can feel like science is a second language, even when talking to peers, let alone the public. This panel brings together some of the nation’s best science journalists to explore how reporters and scientists can use storytelling to bridge worlds and connect earth science to the public. It offers a behind-the-curtain peek at the realities of science journalism and how scientists and reporters can best work together. Panelists include Raymond Zhong of the New York Times, Kirk Siegler of National Public Radio, and Gabriel-Philip Santos of PBS Eons and Cosplay for Science. Moderated by UC Davis science writer Kat Kerlin.
