Day 8 of the Oxford Earth Sciences fieldtrip to #Arran . I haven’t tweeted for a few days; I’ve been making a map of the North Glen Sannox valley 👀 Very interesting rocks recording arc-continent accretion hundreds of millions of years ago! Parts covered up so students can’t spy on mine!
Day 5 of the Oxford Earth Sciences fieldtrip to #Arran , looking at igneous units on the SW coast. Very excited to see the so-called composite dykes with felsic cores and mafic margins 🤔 #fieldwork #Scotland #geology
Day 4 of the Oxford EarthSciences undergraduate trip to #Arran . Decent weather for our walk up to Goat Fell to examine the northern granite and the contact metamorphic rocks in the aureole #fieldwork #Scotland #geology
Day 3 of the Oxford EarthSciences fieldtrip to #Arran . We are looking at sedimentary units on the way to Hutton’s Uncomformity. I’m very excited to see this for the first time! #geology #fieldwork #Scotland
Day 2 of the Oxford EarthSciences fieldtrip to #Arran - MUCH better weather. Let’s hope it stays like this 😵💫 #fieldwork #geology #Scotland
As many of you know, I am a big #Minecraft fan. When I'm not working or spending time with the family, I'm probably playing it. I have decided that I'd like to share my love for the game with everyone else, so recently I've been working on something new. Coming soon...!
