This quarter we will expand our understanding of how current and projected climate trends influence geomorphology. We will read articles that discuss historic and future impacts of climate fluctuations as well as draw on paleo analogs when appropriate.
Please provide a paper copy or pdf a week in advance to allow the group time to read the article.
email Sarah to get on our weekly reminder list or sign up to present.
