Dr. Jim Baichtal, lead geologist for the Tongass National Forest in Alaska, has conducted a variety of biological field research from ancient invertebrate assemblages in karst forests to large-scale landscape shaping by glaciation. An engaging and educational speaker, Dr. Baichtal will be taking us through the evolution of coastlines as we know them and how glaciers have had a drastic effect on their development in this first of two lectures at PSU to celebrate Darwin Day.
Dr. Baichtal will be speaking from 7-8 PM with questions after. Additionally, join us from 5:30-6:15PM for a welcome, and from 6:15-6:45 for a graduate student roundtable discussion with Dr. Baichtal. FREE. Refreshments provided.
