The lecture at the Utah Field House on Main Street in Vernal will feature Dr. William Nash, professor with the Department of Geology and Geophysics. ( "The elegant beauty of volcanoes is often marred by explosive eruptions erup-tions which serve to remind us of the enormous forced generated within the Earth's interior," said Dr. Nash in his description of his topic. Volcanoes are beneficial because of the fertile soil they create and because be-cause of the thermal waters and minerals that are often associated with them. At the same time they can be destructive and life-threatening. "We will examine what a volcano is, why they occur where they do, and what that tells us about how the Earth. The lecture will be illustrated illustrat-ed by examples from recent eruptions erup-tions of Mount St. Helens in the U.S. and Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines. There is evidence in Utah and elsewhere of enormous pre-historic eruptions from the vicinity of Yellowstone National Park that blanketed the entire western United 7 i;ir y i ' f A f V 1 Dr. William Nash States with volcanic asn on several occasions, and are certain to do so again." Nash has studied volcanism on moon rocks as well as those from more down-to-earth sites in United States and Africa. His major interest at the present is a study of the Yellowstone hotspot and its evolution evolu-tion the past 16 million years.
