About the Author

Leslie Moclock has an MS in geology from the University of California-Davis, where she taught field and laboratory geology. She held the position of curator at the Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals in Hillsboro, Oregon, for five years, where she enjoyed many opportunities to bring science to the public.

Jacob Selander grew up in Oregon and holds a PhD from the university of California-Davis. He is an instructor at Highline College in Des Moines, Washington, where he teaches introductory geology, geomorphology, and geologic hazards classes, with a focus on making the sometimes-daunting field of geology accessible to everyone. When not teaching, Jacob is a landscape photographer--one who is always excited to find visual examples of complex geologic phenomena.
