Seminar series starts at Mountain Research Station
Join us at the Mountain Research Station for talks about the plants, animals, soils, permafrost, fires, and water of the Front Range, and how climate change interacts with all of them. The Summer Seminar Series features scientists talking about the research they know best. Learn about everything from the impacts of fire on Coal Creek, the biogeography of organisms that live in your house, climate variability, or American pika.
The seminars are free and open to the public. They take place in the Megaron at the Mountain Research Station, 818 County Road 116, Nederland, at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday evenings. Speakers and topics include:
- June 12: George Kiladis, A look at recent climate variability over the Front Range of Colorado.
