What's Up Under the Ground: The Geophysics of Long Island
on Saturday, February 28, 2009 7:30PM-9:00PM at the Custer
Institute and Observatory, 1115 Main Bayview Road, P.O. Box
1204, Southold, NY 11971. Why is Long Island long? Why
is it an island? Long Island may lack bedrock, but it
doesn't lack interesting geology. Despite what we'd all like
to believe, Long Island is not immune to earthquakes,
including large and damaging ones. And much of what we take
for granted about the Island--from the water we drink, to
the soil which makes our vineyards thrive, to the very
existence of the north and south forks--is a result of the
Pleistocene glaciers. Since the end of the Ice Age, Long
Island has been shaped in remarkable ways by the wind and
the waves...just think of the dunes! You'll also learn about
what the geological and geophysical studies, and such modern
technology as ground-penetrating radar, reveal about many of
Long Island's secrets and history. Presenter: Dr. Dan Davis
is a geophysics professor at Stony Brook University. His
research interests range from the formation of mountain
belts, to glacial geology, to the application of geophysics
to nuclear arms control and the study of icy satellites. He
has a life-long passion for astronomy and is co-author of
the best selling book, Turn Left at Orion. Suggested
Donation: $10 Members, $13 Non-Members, $5 Full-Time
Students. For more information please call 631-765-2626 or
