Why Is Dick Walcott Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Richard Irving Walcott is a New Zealand geologist known for his work on plate tectonics. Walcott studied at Victoria University College, graduating with a BSc in 1962. He then completed his PhD at Victoria University of Wellington in 1965, with a thesis on the Red Hill Complex at Nelson, and was awarded a DSc by thesis from the same institution in 1981. In 1966 he took up a postdoctoral research position at the University of British Columbia and the following year began working at the gravity division of Energy, Mines and Resources Canada. He returned to New Zealand in 1975, became professor of geology at Victoria in 1983, retired in 1999, and was granted the title of emeritus professor.
