What new factors are affecting the health of Lake Tahoe?

Event Date: 
July 28, 2016 - 5:30pm

Join Dr. Geoff Schladow for an entertaining public presentation about the most important factors that affected the health of Lake Tahoe last year during the next U.C. Davis Tahoe Environmental Science Center program. Hear about the most pressing issues for this year, and the new programs that are designed to address them.

Registration for this event is required. The program will begin at 6 p.m. with refreshments and no-host bar from 5:30 - 6 p.m. at 291 Country Club Drive in Incline Village (between Tahoe Boulevard/SR 28 and Lakeshore Blvd.) on the campus of Sierra Nevada College.

Seating is open at 5:30 p.m. to guests who have pre-registered, open seating starts at 5:50 p.m., and the program begins at 6:00 p.m. A $5 suggested donation will be collected at the door.

Professor Schladow, Director, Tahoe Environmental Research Center, specializes in the interaction between fluid transport and mixing processes with water quality in natural and engineered systems. Examples of such systems include lakes, rivers, estuaries and mining pits. Using a combination of field experimentation, detailed laboratory studies and numerical modeling, he is better quantifying the critical flux paths in these systems. The results of this work will lead to improved methods of managing and controlling our water resources.
