Abstract

ABSTRACT Paul Bishop began his undergraduate studies in the School of Earth Sciences at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia at a time when plate tectonics had begun to revolutionize our understanding of landscape evolution. His doctoral research on the late Cenozoic evolution of the upper Lachlan Valley in the Eastern Highlands of New South Wales, Australia, required an integrated study of the combined impacts of Cenozoic tectonism, vulcanism and erosion in this region. His research interest in erosion, tectonism and landscape evolution in a variety of global settings persisted until he retired. Another influence early in his undergraduate career was working with a team of archaeologists excavating prehistoric sites in the Ethiopian Rift Valley to unravel late Quaternary environments (including climate) in this tectonically and volcanically active region.
