    Easton area resident Jackie Lima paints the world around her and seeks to have all visible space represented. She explores representations on spheres and other curved surfaces such as cutting it open and laying it flat, as Mercator did projecting his map of the Earth, seeking the least distortion. The result is a fascinating exploration of visual perception.

    Event Details

    Increasing frequency of intense rainfall events and flood damage in the northeast U.S. suggest a need for improved flash flood prediction and warning systems. David Brandes, professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Lafayette College, will present some recent research on changes in local precipitation and factors that make some watersheds more vulnerable than others. Although urbanization is a dominant factor, other factors like geology, soils, wetlands, and terrain also contribute to flood susceptibility.
