Field trip to gather some first VOC samples of the invasive Asian hornet (Vespa velutina).
Really productive day, thrilled to get the data in the lab later.

A field setup for volatile organic compound (VOC) sampling, showing multiple blue air sampling pumps connected via tubes to a plastic bag enclosing nest material and an Asian hornet. The equipment is arranged on a rough surface, surrounded by green vegetation.
Close-up of an Asian hornet inside a clear plastic bag used for sampling. The insect is positioned near a glass sampling probe, with nest material and tubing also visible. The setup is placed on a textured surface next to a green metal tripod.

Times like these, it’s so comforting to jump in the van and head out for a #fieldtrip. #geology #earthscience #fieldtrip #vermont #mining #resources

Had a pretty good day so far. Went on a field trip with my preschooler’s class to an apple orchard. Bought some gluten-free Trader Joe’s baked dessert. Rebuilt my plex server on a new host.

Felt good to be this productive for myself and family.

🌍 Sometimes, for really understanding Geography, we have to climb mountains, get underground in old mines, and crawl through ravines.

📷 Here are some images from the excursion, where Tobias Hank & Christoph Heinzeller have taken their students on a 1500km travel up, underneath and across the #Alps.

💡 At the #Pasterze glacier, the former mining city #Idrija, the karstic caves of Škocjan, and the cliffs of #Duino, the students experienced Geography first-hand.

View from the viewing platform onto the Pasterze, Austria's largest glacier. There are informational posters and snow on the surrounding mountain peaks.
A view into a mine shaft of the Mine in Idrija. The walls are stabilized by sturdy looking tree trunks and in the middle of the path, rails can be seen.
The excursion group at the cliffs of Duino. Prof. Tobias Hank is standing close to the edge and is talking to the group. Below, the blue Mediterranean Sea can be seen. There's green shrubbery around the group.

Today's #goodnews story comes from #Burrillville, #RhodeIsland.

A routine #school #fieldtrip turned into a heroic #rescue when 12-year-old Alex Dupuis leapt into action to save a struggling #classmate. The quick-thinking seventh-grader didn't hesitate when he noticed a peer fighting to keep his head above water at Spring Lake Beach during the school's annual trip.

SFU Science

The #SFUEarthScience #Quaternary #geology class had a great field trip this past weekend exploring the Channeled Scablands in #Washington State with mostly cooperative weather.

#fieldtrip #SFU #SFUScience

The class learning about the Ephrata Fan. Floodwaters from Grand Coulee spread out and deposited bed load. The rounded boulders are granites from Canada.
Students walking through a line of giant columns of rock called the “feathers.“
A view of Dry Falls
Students checking out “Echo” coulee, just to the south of the larger Frenchman Coulee. Many of these features are twin cataracts. Looking out towards Babcock Bench and the Columbia River.

Simple accomplishments for a sweltering, sluggish, stupidly hazy, and sickly smokey day:

Found the best damned grilled cheese sandwich with two strips of bacon & a couple of pickle chips in a crappy biker dive bar up north.

Picked up a couple pints of blueberries, white nectarines, some weird-ass heirloom string beans at Snow Goose Farms while navigating the tourists. #FieldTrip

Looking forward to the leaves changing soon up on #Chuckanut\

Time to continue melting...

"A lot of people refer to it as social justice. I call it social injustice in terms of the people that are being exposed to poor air quality," Cluster member and University of #Utah faculty member told students during a 2022 #FieldTrip to the #GreatSaltLake.

Went to a garden park and played #frisbee today. It had been a while but some good throws and catches were had. Then wandered down to some shops and #markets at #Chatuchak There was a pet market there but it made me feel a bit sad to see sugar gliders, skinks, lizards, meerkats and capybaras for sale 😭 #Bangkok #FieldTrip #UrbanExplorer

Anomalous pebble in layered #sedimentary #rock

An angular pebble is conformably surrounded by argillaceous and sandy layers in this #photograph of the #Neoproterozoic #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate. The wide range of clast sizes led to an interpretation as a #glacial #tillite thru the 1970s, but the Squantum Member is now mostly interpreted as a #debrisFlow (#debrite or #turbidite). My #photo.

#Boston #fieldTrip #UMassBoston

In this color photo, a greenish circa 2 centimeter pebble at the center is bounded by distorted quasi parallel bedding below and above. Image height is about 10 cm. White balance card at right has an inch scale visible. My photo.

Deformed bedding in meta#sedimentary #rocks

The horizontal bedding of the #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate (#Neoproterozoic, #Boston Bay Group) has been disturbed locally.

In the #glacial #tillite interpretation of the Squantum (favored through at least the 1970s), the distortion might be caused by glaciotectonic drag at the ice base. The current interpretation as a #debrite or #turbidite would probably attribute the deformations to synsedimentary slumping. My #photo. #fieldTrip

This color photo show a circa 12 cm vertical extent of sedimentary rocks. In the upper part of the image, beds are inclined upward to the left. Near the center of the image, a bed has been rolled over itself. These features could have been caused by sediment slumping leftward, possibly in a debris flow. There is a white balance card with inch and centimeter scales at the bottom left. My photo.

The #glacier went that-a-way

The #striations on this face of the #Ediacaran (ca. 560 Ma) #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury #Conglomerate were probably left by the #Pleistocene #Laurentide ice sheet, which retreated ca. 12 ka. The striations have the right orientation, from northwest to southeast.

The Squantum Member was once interpreted as a (#glacial) #tillite. The most common contemporary model is a peri-#Gondwana #debrite (#turbidite).

My #photo. #Boston #geology #NewEngland #fieldTrip

Shallow scratches extend roughly left to right across this image, which is about 20 cm tall. The compass at the left center of the image indicates the scratches are on a NW-SE axis, consistent with the movement of the Pleistocene ice sheet in this region. The cracks are from extensive deformation. There are scales on the sides of the compass. My photo.

Interbedded argillaceous & tuffaceous #sediments

These photos are of #Cambridge #Argillite, exposed above the #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate (#Neoproterozoic). Prior to the 1970s or so, the Squantum Member was interpreted as #glacial sediments; it's now broadly interpreted as debris flows, with the Cambridge being distal turbidites overlying it. I lead a field trip here for #UMassBoston. See captions.

#outcrop #fieldTrip #photo #rocks #tuff #Fufjilm #Venus 65mm #macro #Quincy

This map shows the location of the outcrop (black pin near center), at the north boundary of Quincy, and across Dorchester Bay from the University of Massachusetts Boston; Boston is at the top center. OpenStreetMap in MyTracks.
A close up of fine laminations in Cambridge Argillite. The light layers are probably volcanic ash or tuff, which have been highly altered. The magenta-hued layers are argillaceous: clay, silt, and fine sand. The tuffaceous layers are circa 1 cm thick; scale at bottom is blurred because of limited depth of field. The scene is about 5 cm tall. My photo.
Photo showing altenration of fine argillaceous and conglomerate layers near the boundary between the Squantum Member and the Cambridge Argillite. Scale card at base has cm and inch scales, and is about 5 cm wide; the entire scene is perhaps 50 cm tall, and the conglomerate layers are circa 5 to 10 cm. My photo.
This photograph (scene is about 60 cm tall) shows interbedded argillite (smoother, pinkish, laminated rock) and tuffaceous (volcanic ash) layers that have been altered and weathered back from the rock face. The scale at top is about 5 cm tall. My photo.
