Why Is Trevor D. Ford Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Trevor David Ford was an English geologist and author, best known for publishing the first report on the Precambrian fossil Charnia masoni in 1958. In addition to paleontology, his wide-ranging research encompassed geomorphology, speleology, studies of minerals and mineralisation, and mining history, and mainly focused on the Peak District. His academic career was at the Department of Geology of the University of Leicester, where he rose to be a senior lecturer and associate dean for combined studies in science. He was the founding editor of the journal now entitled Cave and Karst Science , and published many books, both academic texts and books aimed at a broader audience, including cave guides, and guides to geology and minerals.
