"Knowns, Unknowns, and Living Stones: What We Do and Don’t Know About Great Salt Lake's Microbialites"
Description:
In addition to birds, brine shrimp, halophilic microbes, and nematodes, Great Salt Lake is home to a spectacular community of microbialites. These lumpy beige rocks host a diverse microbial ecosystem that forms a vital piece of the lake's food web but are under threat as the lake shrinks. Beyond their modern ecological role, the lake's microbialites serve as complex paleoenvironmental records and may offer clues to understanding the early evolution of life on Earth. This talk will explore what we know, what we think we know, and highlight critical gaps in our understanding of Great Salt Lake's microbialites.

2027 Wilkes Climate Innovation Prize (Accepting Submissions)
Wilkes Center
The Wilkes Climate Innovation Prize seeks bold, high-potential solutions that address significant challenges affecting the climate/energy/economy ecosystem and are positioned to make measurable progress toward real-world use. The Prize is designed to support solutions at a stage where uncertainty remains high, conventional funding or adoption pathways are limited, and targeted support can plausibly influence outcomes. Solutions may be technological, policy-driven, operational, financial, or hybrid. Applicants may be for-profit or nonprofit organizations, academic teams, public-sector innovators, or mission-driven collaborations from anywhere in the world.
Wednesday, September 23, 2026 – Friday, November 20, 2026.
