Geoantiquities Video Project

该项目将向公众宣传NSF基金DEB-9817777的成果，“城市景观中的地球系统历史-在城市快速发展地区实施地理系统资源管理。“在制作NSF资助的视频制作的经验基础上，PI将制作一个10-15分钟的视频，介绍“地质遗迹”的概念，定义为记录环境变化的地球历史的自然记录。 该视频将突出地球科学家采取的步骤，以实现地质地貌的更新世湖邦纳维尔在湖城犹他州地区创建的地质古迹指定。 目标受众是一般公众，但也包括那些积极参与土地使用问题的人，如政府土地管理和规划官员、政治家、开发商和土地所有者。

This project will communicate to public audiences the results of NSF grant DEB-9817777, "Earth System History in the Urban Landscape -- Implementing Geosystem Resource Management in Regions of Rapid Urban Growth." Building on prior experience producing NSF-funded video productions, the PI will produce a 10-15 minute video presenting the concept of "geoantiquity," defined as a natural record of earth history that documents environmental change. The video will highlight the steps taken by earth scientists to achieve geoantiquity designation for geologic landforms created by Pleistocene Lake Bonneville in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. The target audience is the general public, but also those actively engaged in land use issues, such as government land management and planning officials, politicians, developers and landowners.
