February Club Meeting: “A Geologist’s Story of Our Youthful Landscape” presented by John Clague (via Zoom)

Tuesday, February 10, 7:30pm – 9pm

This will be a repeat of the presentation that John Clague gave to members of the Minnekhada Park Association last November (the same evening as our BMN meeting). In his presentation, Professor Clague will explain how the landscape of Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley changed from the time when the last great ice sheet enveloped the South Coast, through to the time it disappeared about 12,000 years ago and over subsequent postglacial time, right up to the present.

John is an Emeritus Professor in SFU’s department of Earth Sciences. He has made important contributions to our understanding of earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides and floods during his career, and he has received many honours for his work, including the Order of Canada.

The recording of John’s presentation to BMN four years ago has had over 17,000 views on the BMN YouTube channel!
