Professor Motyka has been investigating glaciers in Alaska and around the world for over 35 years.
At a time when sea level rise concerns many people in the world, the retreat of our local glaciers is causing land to uplift and sea level to fall across the entire northern part of Southeast Alaska. Come learn about this phenomenon and how it affects shoreline landscapes and Southeast Alaska Land Trust conservation projects right in our own backyards.
