California Coastal Legend Dr. Gary Griggs

On this episode, hosts Peter Ravella and Tyler Buckingham talk to legendary California coastal geologist Dr. Gary Griggs. Having taught at UC Santa Cruz for over 50 years, and with no sign of slowing down, Gary has become a fixture on campus and on Golden State beaches everywhere. Gary's research is focused on the coastal zone and ranges from coastal evolution and development, through shoreline processes, coastal hazards and coastal engineering, and sea level rise. We talk about the slate issues facing the California Coast, including SLR and managed retreat, desalination projects, and climate patters that determine El Nino and La Nina weather cycles.
