The Geology of Antarctica: A personal journey

This is a Bath Geological Society talk (Queen Square or online) –  click on Book Tickets for ticket information.

This talk presents an overview of the geology of Antarctica based on James Cresswell’s personal experiences and observations gained during 38 visits to the continent as a geology guide on expedition cruise ships over a period of 10 years.

The talk will take you through the geological evolution of Antarctica, covering topics from vulcanology to palaeontology and describing sites from the Antarctic Peninsula to the less-visited Ross Sea. The talk is illustrated with many of James’ own photos and personal anecdotes from this exciting chapter of his life.
