Figure 1. This is an aerial view of Skeiðarárjökull, a modern glacial outwash plain of the larger Vatnajökull ice cap in Iceland, as of 2005. This landscape shows how meltwater from a retreating glacier spreads sediment across a flat plain — an analog for the glacial outwash and tillplain left behind in Indiana at the end of the last Ice Age.

Below are opportunties for volunteers to contribute their local observations to projects focused on insect conservation in the tillplain region of Central Indiana.
