I took my Marine Biology class to Delaware tonight to survey Horseshoe crabs during the high tide.
Perfect night, thousands of horseshoes, and they got to tag them!
Field classes are where it's at!

Having just returned from a fieldclass with my 2nd years, I 100% agree with this. IMO, fieldwork is essential to a geography education, but we can also be creative about what constitutes fieldwork - it doesn’t have to be in an ‘exotic’ location to be worthwhile.

Rainy day at our friends caravan - learning @daybreak daybreak.org from the makers of @pandemic . Getting ready for @UofGGES @UofGSciEng @UofGlasgow Inverness 2 fieldclass. The race to adapt and mitigate doesn’t quite give me that holiday vibe though 😂 @CMYK_Games

The @CamUniGeography fieldclass in Morocco is my favourite part of the academic calendar. Student projects exploring the prolonged impacts of the earthquake, climate change, disaster, water politics, livelihood change and mobility futures! @CelineMVidal and @Max_VWDV

Thinking of friends in Rhodes... We've been going there since 2018 for our 2nd year geography fieldclass. One of the activities we do look at forest fire regeneration near Laerma. We've seen and measured new growth over the years; in the area that is now on fire again.

Here's the full area affected by the fire in #Rhodes, according to EU's @CopernicusEU effis.jrc.ec.europa.eu/apps/…

A day up Cairngorm mountain with all the weather (mist, hail, snow, sun). Last day of our fieldclass for geography and environmental science students. Cairngorm lived up to its Arctic/alpine reputation. 🌏🌱🏞️
