Salt Deep: A Deep Dive into the Great Salt Lake


Listen Later

Join us for a science-and-story plunge into Utah’s Great Salt Lake—from its origins as Lake Bonneville to today’s hypersaline north arm, brine shrimp and flamingos, and the legends that surround it. We explore the lake’s ecology, the two-armed mismatch caused by the Lucent Cutoff, ongoing threats from shrinking waters and air quality, and the human stories that make this salty giant worth protecting.
