Scott Ashford, Dean of Engineering at Oregon State University, is a geo-technical engineer studying earthquakes and much of his research focuses on blast-induced liquefaction. Join us as we discuss engineering, its evolution and complexity, and what he has learned in his long tenure. What if a magnitude 9 earthquake struck the Pacific Northwest today?

The threat from the Cascadia subduction zone is real and imminent, with the potential for catastrophic impacts on infrastructure, utilities, and communities.  With the last major event occurring in the early 1700s, the clock is ticking, and Scott explains how engineers are working to mitigate the risks associated with this geological threat.

We also talk duck hunting with our favorite dogs, Labs.
