From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Robert A. (Bob) Gearheart (born 1938) is an emeritus professor of Environmental Engineering at Humboldt State University, in Arcata, California.
Bob teaches courses in environmental impact assessment, hazardous waste management and water quality management.
His research interests include water and wastewater treatment, using appropriate technology, including constructed wetlands. He is also involved with a number of public and private sector agencies providing support for water supply facilities in developing countries, such as Indonesia, Kenya, Ghana, and Sierra Leone.
Dr. Gearheart has been involved with the development of Arcata's Integrated Wetland and Wastewater Treeatmant facility and the Arcata Marsh. He continues to be active in ongoing research as the Arcata Marsh grows and matures. The Arcata Marsh serves as a sewage treatment plant, a recreation area, a wildlife sanctuary and aquaculture project. It is a good example of humans working in cooperation with the environment.
Dr. Gearheart received his B.A. in Biology and Mathematics from the University of North Texas, and his M.S. and Ph. D. in Civil Engineering from the University of Oklahoma.
