intrigued visitors to its narrow sandy peninsula. Trace the evolution of
our present understanding of the geological processes responsible for Cape
Cod’s coastal forms and changing coastlines. Graham Giese is a
senior scientist and co-founder of PCCS. His widely published works
explore sea waves, tides, and ocean phenomena which affect the land and how it
is formed. This talk will provide a brief introduction to the study of land-sea
interactions and provide insight into the subject using examples from research
carried out in the Caribbean, Philippines and Cape Cod.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
