Svalbard: Life on the Edge of the Arctic

Explore the breathtaking Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, a remote land of glaciers, polar bears, dramatic landscapes, and extreme seasons. This presentation will introduce Svalbard’s geography, wildlife, climate, history, and the unique ways people live and work in one of the world’s northernmost inhabited regions.

Paola Bari and D.B.Brown will be your hosts for the night. Paola just recently visited the region while D.B. was in Svalbard 25 years ago leading an American expedition.
