Clear northward view of the Ochil Hills (here, the fantastic fault scarp) from Larbert 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Devonian age volcanics lie to the north of the Ochil Fault and Carboniferous sedimentary rocks to the south. #backyardgeology

(L) The end of my UNIQ+ internship @oxfordtephra.bsky.social in 2022, and (R) two weeks ago in the 2nd year of my PhD (and in the chaos of #StormÉowyn), continuing to analyse tephra from Campi Flegrei. An insightful experience for those considering PhD life! 🔬🌋

📣 UGs in archaeology, geography and Earth science 📣 Considering a PhD? Join our lab @oxfordtephra.bsky.social this summer on a 7-week long research internship 🌋. Stipended & with accommodation. Deadline Feb 19th. Application details and eligibility criteria: www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/g...

And more recently, PhD student @gavrkane.bsky.social gave his conference debut at the @vmsg.bsky.social conference in Dublin 🟩 👏🏻 🧪

Gavin presented glass chemistry that can be used to synchronise eruption records between the Campanian Ignimbrite and NYT 🇮🇹

We are also excited that Elo Wilkinson-Rowe has started her PhD and will be a new valuable member of the CAVES Project. See more here: caves.web.ox.ac.uk

📸 Here is Elo with fellow PhD Student @gavrkane.bsky.social during our sampling trip at Bremen Core Repository 👍🏻👍🏻
