Distinguished Lecturer - Stephen Worthington on March 19, 2010 Folks, We are pleased to announce that Dr. Stephen Worthington will be the Edwards Aquifer Authority’s 8th Distinguished Lecturer. Dr. Worthington will make his presentation on Friday, March 19, 2010. His talks will focus on the exciting studies of the last ten years that have helped to integrate the largely independent fields of research using wells on the one hand and using tracer tests, springs and caves on the other hand. Many of you may also know Steve as a caver who has caved extensively around the world including some of the early work in Castleguard Cave in Canada and other work in Malaysia and Europe. His MS was performed on the Frairs Hole System in West Virginia and his Ph.D. thesis was on speleogenesis of the Canada Rockies. Steve is an excellent presenter. The late Dr. Jim Quinlan told me that he thought Steve’s dissertation was the most important piece of work done on karst in English in more than 20 years.
