PORT ANGELES — Olympic National Park’s scientific research coordinator will provide a “big picture” look at the research on the Elwha River when he speaks at a Port Angeles Library “River Story” presentation Wednesday.
Jerry Freilich’s lecture will be at 7 p.m. at the library at 2210 S. Peabody St.
He will discuss how the different projects fit together and reflect on the challenges of coordinating the efforts of dozens of researchers in order to derive the maximum benefit from their collaboration.
Dozens of scientists currently are conducting a variety of research activities, such as the study of sediments, offshore kelp, marine derived nutrients, fire history, wildlife and other highly specialized topics.
This program is the final presentation in the “River Story” program series, a multifaceted visual exhibit that will remain on display through Sept. 8 at the Port Angeles Library
