On the Shoulders of Giants

The Irish Quaternary Association (IQUA) will
host a series of retrospective talks in the Hunt Museum, Limerick on Saturday
21st April to celebrate key Quaternary scientists as part of their annual
Spring Meeting. Starting at 9.30am,
influential pioneers of the nineteenth and twentieth-century like Robert Lloyd
Praeger and Valerie Hall known for their spear-heading work investigating how
the Irish landscape was shaped, and the challenges they faced will be
explored. In the footsteps of these
Quaternary heroes, Eoin McCraith from the Geological Survey Ireland will be
giving a short talk on Irish Submerged Landscapes. For more information see www.iqua.ie.
