The Deep Past and Shocking Future of Texas’ Coastline

Ancient people dealt with sea levels that changed even faster than they are now. What does geology and archeology tell us about what’s going on here now? Today, we talk with geologist Dan Worrall about what our coast looked like in the deep past — and what that history indicates about Galveston’s future.

Check out Dan's book: A Prehistory of Houston and Southeast Texas: Landscape and Culture.
