The Weekend Wonk: Mauri Pelto on Antarctic Rescue, Glacier Melt, and California Drought
January 5, 2014
I had the pleasure of skyping with Dr. Mauri Pelto on Friday.
I was lucky enough to get invited along on part of Dr. Pelto’s glacier survey trip in 2012, on Easton Glacier in the northern Cascades, and he remains a frequent correspondent and resource for this series.
We talked about recent events, including the rescue of scientists in the Antarctic, recent extreme weather, and the California drought.
There’s more, that I may post later, several balls in play today.
