Some impressions from our year 2 geology field course to the Lake District. Not bad when it’s sunny!

It’s the second time we ran our volcanic and magmatic processes field trip to the Kaiserstuhl and Eifel. A great week with great students and superb geology.

Expedition 398 E&O Officer Susan just published a book on the amazing cores we drilled in and around Santorini.
It's great for anyone (layperson to expert) who wants to learn about these stunning cores.
