Alumni, parents, and friends of Whitman College are invited to meet and hear from Associate Professor of Geology and Environmental Studies Lyman Persico.
Dr. Persico's talk, “Floods, Wolves, and Climate Change: Changing Baselines in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem,” will walk through his research alongside students in the field, in and around Yellowstone National Park, last summer.
Lyman Persico has a joint appointment in the environmental studies and geology programs. His areas of study include Geomorphology, Soil Geomorphology, Paleoclimatology and Hydrology - which means that he likes thinking about rocks, dirt, and water and how people interact with rocks, dirt, and water with research focused on how landscapes respond to climate change.
