B. Ronald Frost is Emeritus Professor of Geology at the University of Wyoming. He has conducted extensive field research in the Precambrian basement of Wyoming, as well as in Siberia, Greenland, Northern Canada, and the Broken Hill area of Australia. He is the author of more than 110 scientific papers on topics ranging from serpentinization and the metamorphism of serpentinites, ocean floor metamorphism, granulites, thermobarometry, the geochemistry of granites, and melting of sulfide ore deposits. He was previously an associate editor for the Journal of Metamorphic Geology and Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, and served on the editorial board of the Journal of Petrology.
