   intro_statements:
   - Gregg Swayze is a Scientist Emeritus in Denver. Gregg received a Doctorate in
     Geology from the University of Colorado in 1997. Since joining the USGS in 1985,
     Gregg has devoted his career to studying Remote Sensing and specializes in Imaging
     Spectroscopy. Presently, his science focuses on environmental and mineral exploration
     applications of imaging spectroscopy.

   personal_statement: Research InterestsOver the years, Gregg has developed methods
     to spectrally map acid-mine drainage in Leadville, Colorado, naturally-occurring
     asbestos in the foothills of California, insulation asbestos in the World Trade
     Center dust, and oil emulsions formed during the 2010 BP oil spill. He has also
     developed a portable spectral fingerprinting technique to identify asbestos-bearing
     vermiculite in attic insulation. Gregg has used his imaging spectroscopy experience
     with relict hydrothermal systems in Nevada and Hawaii to help map similar mineral
     deposits on the surface of Mars with the NASA CRISM orbital spectrometer. His
     most recent focus is on spectrally mapping REE-bearing minerals at the Mt. Pass
     Mine in California. He was recently selected as a Co-Investigator of the NASA/JPL
     Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) team with the goal of
     putting an imaging spectrometer on the International Space Station to map the
     mineralogy of dust source regions on a global basis.
