SUMMARY:Measuring the ice thickness of Canada's largest mountain glaciers
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:The availability of fresh water from Canada’s glaciers and\ni
 ncreasing hazards due to glacial lake flooding are key factors for\nadapti
 ng to warming climate in Canada’s glaciated regions. However\,\nthe nece
 ssary ice thickness information required to determine these\nfactors is un
 known for most Canadian glaciers. To address the absence\nof Canadian glac
 ier ice thickness measurements\, a multi-year\nhelicopter-borne radar prog
 ram has been undertaken to measure the ice\nthickness of Canada’s larges
 t mountain glaciers\, located in Kluane\nNational Park\, Yukon.

SUMMARY:The 'plan bee' for a changing climate: pollination infrastructure f
 or\na shifting agricultural reality
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Master of Future Cities' student Konrad Borowski will present a
 t the\nnext SERS Salon talk to explore the critical infrastructure of\npol
 lination today\, and the ways operational\, ecological\, and\nmechanical a
 pproaches are changing to protect its continuity. As\nclimate change alter
 s flowering seasons and exposes agriculture to\nfloods\, droughts\, and ex
 treme heat\, the pollination that supports\nthree-quarters of all food on 
 Earth is at risk of collapse.
