Upcoming “On the Rocks” Presentation At Montana Western

The University of Montana Western’s Environmental Sciences Department is pleased to present “Using Surface Processes to Understand Mountain Range Evolution” by UMW Assistant Professor Dr. Lorrie Carnes as part of the “On the Rocks” lecture series. This free, public event will be held at the Lucy Carson Library on October 23 at 4:00 p.m.

 



Dr. Lorrie Carnes, an Assistant Professor of fluvial geomorphology at Montana Western, will explore surface process analysis in her presentation. With a B.S. in Earth and Environmental Sciences from Lehigh University and a PhD in Geological Sciences from Arizona State University, Dr. Carnes will explain how erosion rates, soil production, and channel steepness are used to uncover the evolution of the Pinaleño Mountains, a metamorphic core complex located in southeast Arizona.
