ONDA is kicking off the 2019 Bend High Desert Speaker Series on January 15, with geologist Daniele McKay presenting on high desert supervolcanoes and flood basalts. From massive caldera eruptions to lava flows that can be found throughout the state, Oregon’s volcanic history has played an important role in shaping the stunning landscapes and waterways of the high desert.

About the speaker

Daniele is a geology instructor at the University of Oregon and is based in Bend. She studies volcanic activity and has focused much of her research on central Oregon volcanoes. When Daniele isn’t leading students into the field and sharing her research in the classroom, you might find her hiking, skiing or teaching other community members about the incredible volcanic landscapes that surround us.

The event will take place at Worthy Brewing’s Hop Mahal room at 495 NE Bellevue Drive in Bend. The event is free and open to the public, but space is limited and registration is required. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with the speaker beginning at 7 p.m. For more information about other speakers in this series, visit ONDA.org/speakerseries
