Birch Aquarium is featuring their 2010 Fall Evening Lecture Series beginning on September 13th. Earthquakes and Earth's magnetic field will be explored during the first of this three-part series from the researchers at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UCSD.
Each program runs from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the aquarium, 2300 Expedition Way and below is the September 13th program:
- Sept. 13: "Shake, Rattle and Roll: The Physics of Earthquakes."
Scripps physical oceanographer Kevin Brown will describe the phenomena that we experience as earthquakes and relate what scientists understand about the physics of the events. He'll talk about techniques that he and his colleagues are using to better understand when, where and how earthquakes occur.
With the recent earth shaking in San Diego, this should be an important event to attend!
