A remembrance: Glaciologist Gordon Hamilton

Climate scientist Gordon Hamilton died in Antarctica over the weekend when his snowmobile plunged into a deep glacial crevasse. His research at the poles focused on the relationship between melting ice sheets and rising sea levels.

My remembrance of Gordon aired today on PRI’s The World.
