Stephen Morris ‘Dr. Freeze’

Stephen Morris is the J. Tuzo Wilson professor of Geophysics in the Department of Physics at the University of Toronto. His experimental research projects have included icicle morphology, the cracking of mud and rock, and the washboarding of gravel roads. Recently, he has assembled the largest collection of icicle images ever made; he has thus been called “the icicle whisperer”. He is an award winning university teacher and a fellow of the American Physical Society. He sometimes passes off his scientific photographs as art.
