In atmospheric science, a boundary layer is the band of air nearest the ground. In the Pacific Northwest, the boundary layer teems with lichens, mosses, ferns, fungi, and diminutive plants. It's an alternate, overlooked universe whose denizens Kem Luther calls the stegnon. In Boundary Layer, Luther takes a voyage of discovery through the stegnon, exploring the life forms that thrive there.
