Historical Note
The Earth Research Institute (ERI) is a UC Santa Barbara Organized Research Unit (ORU) focusing on supporting research and
education in the sciences of the solid, fluid, and living Earth, to examine how Earth processes affect mankind and how mankind
perturbs the Earth. ERI was founded in 2010, merging UCSB's Institute for Crustal Studies (ICS) and Institute for Computational
Earth Systems Science (ICESS). The ICS was established as an interdisciplinary unit focused on the Earth's crust, with a key
consideration for "deep time." The ICESS was established also as an interdisciplinary unit, to increase understanding of global
environmental changes and assessing their impacts on the Earth and society.
John Curran was a California State Registered Geologist and Certified Engineering Geologist who worked as a consultant throughout
Santa Barbara County. Curran served as both the Vice President (1966) and President (1970) of the Pacific Section of the American
Association of Petroleum Geologists, and was presented with their Honorary Life Membership Award in 1984. He also served as
one of the first Chairmen for the Coast Geological Society.
Kempton Bishop Hall (K.B. "Pete" Hall) worked as a petroleum and ground water geologist for Richfield Oil, and subsequently
ARCO. Hall also acted as a consultant to other large companies, government agencies, and private parties throughout his career.
He was a pioneer in offshore exploration and worked on many of the first offshore rigs in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties.
Hall served as President and Honorary Life Member of the Pacific Section of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists,
Charter Member of the American Institute of Professional Geologists, and was a founding member and President of the Coast
Geological Society.
