Arnoud Boomโ€™s recent fieldwork in Zambia. Working with a team of local and international collaborators, this work is exploring the potential of the lakes, wetlands and peatlands of northern Zambia to understand how the tropics have and will respond to global climate changes.

Last night at 23:24:50 (UTC time), a M8.8 #earthquake rocked the Kamchatka Peninsula in eastern Russia. The event was detected by seismometers in our test bays, taking only 12 minutes to arrive. This event was the largest since the 2011 M9.1 earthquake in NE Japan.

I love being a geographer - it covers so many interesting and important topics. Today I have read pieces from colleagues in Leicester Geography on English peatlands, cultural variation in LLMs, windfarm development and decolonisation practice in public libraries. #ProudGeographer
