Georgia’s shorelines are in constant motion. Waves, tides, storms and human choices all play a role in this daily dance. Barrier islands erode and accrete, while tidal creeks meander throughout the marsh, reshaping our coastline in predictable patterns.

University of Georgia Skidaway Institute of Oceanography researcher Clark Alexander will explore the ever-changing Georgia coast in an Evening @ Skidaway program titled “The Dynamic Shorelines of Georgia – Past, Present and Future” on Tuesday, July 9, in the McGowan Library on the University of Georgia Skidaway Marine Science Campus (10 Ocean Science Circle, Savannah, GA 31411). The event will begin with a reception at 6:30 p.m., followed by the program at 7 p.m.

The program is open to the public, and admission is free. Space is limited. To reserve a seat, please call (912) 598-2325 or email mike.sullivan@skio.uga.edu.
