Stephen Marshak is professor of geology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, where he is also the director of the School of Earth, Society, and Environment. He holds an A.B. from Cornell University, an M.S. from the University of Arizona, and a Ph.D. from Columbia University. Steve's research interests lie in structural geology and tectonics. This work has taken him into the field on a number of continents. Steve loves teaching and has won his college's and university's highest teaching awards. In addition to research papers and Earth Science, Steve has also authored Earth: Portrait of a Planet, Essentials of Geology, and has co-authored the Laboratory Manual for Introductory Geology, Earth Structure: An Introduction to Structural Geology and Tectonics, and Basic Methods of Structural Geology. Robert Rauber, an AMS Member, an AMS Certified Consulting Meteorologist (inactive), and a Fellow of the AMS, is professor and head of the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. His research falls within the disciplines of physical meteorology, radar meteorology, and mesoscale meteorology. Much of his work involves collaborative efforts with other faculty members and scientists from other institutions. Dr. Rauber has been an investigator in twenty major field research programs and has worked extensively with conventional, dual-Doppler, and airborne radars, dual-channel microwave radiometers, optical array and scattering probes, as well as other aircraft and ground-based and satellite-based instruments. Rauber is a co-author of Severe and Hazardous Weather with John Walsh and Donna Charlevoix, which is in its Fourth Edition and has been used by well over a hundred schools.
