In this episode of Backyard Geology, Serena takes you to Scotland where foundations for modern geology were laid. In the late 18th century, naturalists seeking to explain the landscapes around them started to propose radical ideas about the origins of rocks and the cycling of Earth’s materials. Tune in to hear about the people, places and things that shaped our first geology textbooks. A special thank you goes out to Chris Spencer, who was graciously interviewed to provide information presented in this podcast.
