He has presented papers describing this mechanism for the Genesis Flood, now known as 'catastrophic plate tectonics,' at three International Conferences on Creationism held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Dr. Baumgardner is currently a full-time faculty member of the Institute for Creation Research. Dr. Baumgardner's past technical work at Los Alamos included the development of a new global ocean model for investigating climate change. He is also currently a member of the Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth (RATE) committee. | more | less
