The Columbia Glacier is one of Alaska's better known tidewater glaciers, both from the standpoint of tourist attraction and the model it provides for scientific investigation. In 1973 it became the object of close scientific scrutiny. In Alaska, some 50 to 60 glaciers calve into the sea, but exhibit such diversified behavior that they have baffled glaciologists for decades. For instance, some ...
Columbia Glacier, located about 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of Valdez near the epicenter of the great 1964 earthquake, is rapidly losing its battle for survival. It is the last of Alaska's 52 tidewater glaciers to begin its epic retreat from the sea. Granted, Alaska still has plenty of glaciers left, but the tidewater glaciers--those that empty directly into the sea--are on a drastic decline ...
Columbia Glacier in Prince William Sound and Bering Glacier in the St. Elias Mountains are two glaciers losing ice at an alarming rate: during the past decade, Columbia has shrunk by an average of about 21 feet per year along the length of the glacier; Bering has lost more than 9 feet per year.
The team analyzed 20 years of Columbia Glacier’s seismic activity to learn what these signals can reveal about changes in the glacier and the conditions that drive them. The glacier has been retreating since the early 1980s after approximately 200 years of stability. The findings were published March 22 in Geophysical Research Letters.
These trees, which can live longer than 1,000 years, grow on the rainy coast from the Oregon/California border through British Columbia and as far north as Prince William Sound. The giants have in many areas died in large numbers, puzzling scientists who later came up with a non-intuitive theory of what killed them.
For comparison, that's right ahead of the Columbia in area drained and right after it in discharge. (The Columbia River also needs Canada to gain its rank; its source is in British Columbia.) Two Yukon tributaries also make the list. The Porcupine ranks 20th in drainage area, and the Tanana is number 16 for average discharge.
By glowing red on Sunday night, , the heavens over the United States displayed their pleasure with the successful flight of the shuttle Columbia. Perhaps because Columbia was up that night, more Americans than usual looked up at the sky and saw the red aurora that covered much of the nation, even as far south as Texas.
Many glaciers smaller than about five square kilometers — like those in the European Alps, New Zealand, Scandinavia and Glacier National Park in Montana — will disappear by the end of this century, said Radic, a researcher at the University of British Columbia and former graduate student at the Geophysical Institute.
Alaska is more than twice the size of the largest of the lower 48 states, and the amount of Alaska underlain by permafrost is equal to the size of three Californias. Ten states are smaller than the area covered by glaciers in Alaska. If glaciers of the adjacent Yukon Territory and British Columbia that connect to Alaska's ice fields (often referred to as the Alaska-Yukon glaciers) are added ...

IGNATIUS: This chapel is dedicated to St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuit Order. To the left of this chapel is the headstone for James Murphy, son of the pioneer family that founded the City of Sunnyvale and one of the first students to attend Santa Clara College.
St. Francis Chapel Located in the Mission Church complex with an entrance near Nobili Hall, facing the wisteria arbor, this chapel contains part of the original adobe wall. It is used as a space for small group prayer and meditation.
On , a fire originating in the old Mission Church swept rapidly across campus and burned many buildings beyond restorations. It was ignited by faulty wiring and broke out in the north tower that had been added to the church in the 1860’s. Among the buildings destroyed was the Students’ Memorial Chapel. A hastily constructed new chapel, with the rescued furnishings of the ...
