@UoABioSci let’s never underestimate the value of field-based teaching to complement other techniques! Global Soils and the Environment saw genuine examples of global soils in Aberdeenshire, Moray and Angus and developed confidence in the process

Blessed with clear weather @QUADRATdtp we visit the top of Italy to see the source of glaciers and consider threats and changes then back to the valley to do some soil pH measurements and further river sediment diversity- excellent knowledge transfer @UoABioSci

Drones for land cover and introduction to soil characterisation here in the valleys around Courmayeur- will download later to show environmental mapping with data we are gathering- quadrat next for plant diversity to build up the baseline @QUADRATdtp @UoABioSci

From catchment sampling to microscale analysis- taking kick samples to look at river benthos diversity to complement hydrology measurements and amazingly using an infield digital microscope for more confident identification- it’s all happening in Courmayeur @QUADRATdtp
