Geology Interns have compiled an impressive bibliography of research

Nisqually Glacier Survey, 2011

While researching last week's blog entry about internship opportunities at Mount Rainier, I discovered that the National Park Service has posted an impressive bibliography of research products created over the years by our Geologist-in-Parks interns. The list is searchable by topic or by park. Here's the list for Mount Rainier National Park. You can see right away what an asset this program has been for us over the years, and how much these interns have contributed to our understanding of this dynamic landscape, and to our ability to communicate that knowledge to the public. Happy reading!
