Listen "Sculpting a Plateau"
Episode Synopsis
Here in SE Utah, we are living in a geologically young, rapidly eroding landscape and we have the Colorado River to thank for sculpting such a beautiful and dynamic area. We talk with Joel Pederson, professor and Department Head of Geomorphology at Utah State University about his continuing research on incision rates of the Colorado River across the Colorado Plateau. We talk about some new advancements in age dating and why the area around Moab is currently the fastest eroding reach of the River.
