SUMMARY:Think & Drink: The 1980 Eruption & Recovery of Mount St. Helens
DESCRIPTION:When Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18\, 1980\, it instantly transformed hundreds of square miles of lush Pacific Northwest forest into a silent wasteland. Though while the world watched what looked like an absolute ecological dead zone\, a quiet and unexpected rebellion of life was already beginning just beneath the grey surface.\n\nJoin author and science writer Dr. Eric Wagner as he explores the fascinating ecological aftermath of this historic eruption. Drawing from his acclaimed book\, After the Blast: The Ecological Recovery of Mount St. Helens\, Eric's program traces how plants and animals transformed our understanding of how ecosystems rebuild after a major disaster. He tells a story of remarkable natural resilience that challenges how we view catastrophe and renewal in the wild.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nDr. Eric Wagner is a writer and biologist based in Seattle. He holds a PhD in biology from the University of Washington and is the author of multiple works\, including After the Blast: The Ecological Recovery of Mount St. Helens\, and Seabirds as Sentinels: Auklets\, Puffins\, Shearwaters\, and the View from Destruction Island.
