Fieldnotes

Fieldnotes are the musings from our lab explorations

Land is kin – exploring communities in the path of landslide hazards in Chilean Patagonia, April 2024

The impact of recent climate change on glacier dynamics – examining the impact of regional warming and heatwaves on the evolution of Bridge Glacier and its proglacial lake, Lilloet Icefield

Cascading effects of climate change on the world’s water towers – the various impacts of snowpack and glacier loss on water resources, natural hazards and communities downstream.

Anthropocene Science– The Anthropocene requires a more holistic, critical and systems understanding of our relationship to and with the earth surface.

Soundscapes of climate change– The cascading effects of climate change create their own sound; but no one has really bothered to listen. We are recording the sounds of glacial recession and its effects on meltwater runoff downstream, the sounds of ice melting, rocks and sediment moving and people adapting, from the source to the sink.
