Projecting Future Scenarios for Fidalgo Bay (All day)
Projecting Future Scenarios for Fidalgo Bay - Modeling Water Circulation and Coastal Changes
Dr. Eric Grossman, Research Geologist, U.S. Geological Survey
“Dr. Grossman will discuss how the US Geological Survey is using powerful 3D computer modeling to examine coastal processes and inform ecosystem restoration and hazard mitigation in the Salish Sea. How might climate change, sea level rise and land use influence coastal communities, ecosystem restoration outcomes, and Fidalgo Bay? Learn how USGS is constructing a 3D hydrodynamic model of Fidalgo Bay as part of a larger Salish Sea model to study these questions. Citizen science can help USGS and its partners improve these models through research and monitoring – find out how you can get involved as a volunteer!”
Trail Tales Volunteer Meeting (Wed. 12 Feb, 2014 10:00 am - 12:30 pm)
Guest speaker will be Brett Lunsford of the Museum and Dale Fowler from the Port to give us a look at the marine /waterfront history down at Cap Sante.
NOTE! We MAY have a location change to Seafarer's for the sake of convenience, so please check the calendar again in early February.
Since the program will be from 11 to noon, we will not be including a lunch break, but if you would like to share a lunch with each other after our walk in the marina, you can bring a lunch and join anyone else with the same desire. We will have coffee and tea and juice for the first hour. Please encourage anyone interested in getting involved with Trail Tales to attend.
