Bob Diffendal is a geologist and professor emeritus in the School of Natural Resources. While he formally retired in September of 2003, he remains quite active in the School and University, particularly in writing and public speaking about Earth science. His specific research interests have to do with the geology of western and north-central Nebraska; Upper Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic geology, mostly in Nebraska, and invertebrate fossils.
