Thank you for sharing, great video I will go to the portal soon. This will help me on my research of the upper Paleolithic of the east coast. I am working on the Gulf coast of Fla now, but Thanks for your excellent work.
GREAT OVERVIEW OF APPALACHIAN GEOLOGY! I'm relocating back to the southern blue ridge province (- just south of the NC/GA line). So I'm really excited to get out there to see those ancient mountains again! As a former park ranger in Yosemite, Yellowstone, and other western parks, learning the geology of the west was a wonderful bonus. Any suggestions about any other high quality presentations on this subject and other aspects of Appalachia will be greatly appreciated!
This was one of the best overviews of east coast geology I've come across. Thank you for a beautiful and clear presentation. I live near Philadelphia and have been working on understanding the geology around me. ❤
That first 2D diagram showing the different ways of thinking about the earth: chemical versus mechanical really clarifies a mystery about geology that I have always had. I have always seen both separately and have long wondered about how they matched up: your presentation clears it up immediately! Thank you. It’s always good to cover the basics.
Hey could you make a video about the MyFossil app/website? It’s a great concept and just what I was looking for but every time I attempt to do anything I get errors so it’s completely unusable for me.
Fascinating history! I wish I’d have been exposed to these cultures in my youth as I’m certain I’d have chosen a different career path! Too bad there aren’t mobile exhibitions for schools for children to experience!
I believe that with 15% larger eye sockets Neanderthals were dawn and dusk hunters so projectile weapons were very hard to use in twilight. I also think that living in very cold, so rather sparser animal populations food was generally scarcer so their populations were very possibly quite small. It is possible with our extreme reproductive proclivity we are capable of overwhelming any species including close relatives by sheer numbers including ultimately ourselves. I thought your presentation, and therefore also your work, really excellent. Thank you and this organization so much
Great info .I grew up in the Scranton area and have 4 generations of grandfathers who came to NEPA from Ireland as well. My father would tell us stories that his grandfather worked the mines in Mauch Chunk with the Moly Maguires. Hard times. The last one to mine was my grandfather until 1950 in Scranton..1850 was my great great grandfathers in CoalDale region and I believe also Centralia and Shamokin they all lived in those towns I had multiple families come here from Ireland. My fathers fathers, but not just them but my gg mothers father’s..there was 8 of them that worked the mines for many years.
Great info. I took the Lackawanna coal mine tour back in the 90s it was neat. I grew up in the Scranton area and have 4 generations of grandfathers who came to NEPA from Ireland as well.

In fact, the owl hybrid shown is a "sparred owl", i.e. a cross between spotted and barred owls. Thus, these are not different genera, but closely related species of the same genus.
I tried to sign up for MyFossils but it said the email address was already used. Turns out it was one of the palaeontology apps I downloaded last week.
@@MarylandNature There are hundreds of highly qualified Master fish breeders in our area who are fully prepared to raise thousands of these fish with extreme detail for the genetics involved. Why are they not being included? This would provide more than enough animals to replenish the population. The National Aquarium, of which I am a founding Board of Directors official, is not capable of providing what concerned and qualified aquarists can accomplish.
@Drew Webster, Great job and excellent video, Maryland is one of the oldest sites on the East Coast. Dr. Lowery has been a great resource of information on the Upper Paleolithic, Solutrean on Parsons Island. Keep up the good work and always dig deeper. Thanks Paul Thumbs Up Luckey13 and Subscribed.
