Adult class -- Albuquerque's Geological Landscape
Albuquerque's landscape is a snapshot of the geologic past and a record of the dynamic geology that formed our state. Did you know that the Rio Grande, the Albuquerque Volcanoes and the Sandias are all part of the same geological story? Do you want to learn more about where you live and why it looks the way it does? Attend this one-session museum class (choose either May 18 or July 8) and learn about the geology of the greater-Albuquerque area. No prior knowledge of geology is required.
A copy of the Museum's Albuquerque Geoscape Poster (a $10 value) is given to participants.
Jayne Aubele is Educator/Geologist at the museum. Her focus is volcanoes, and she has mapped and researched the geology of New Mexico and the Southwest as well as the Moon, Mars and Venus. Jayne has been a research staff scientist and program manager for NASA's Space Grant Program. She has authored or co-authored many technical articles and popular books/chapters about N.M. geology, including the Field Guide to the Sandia Mountians; and was geologic technical advisor and on-camera geologist for the 2008 KNME-TV program, The Sandias.
