It is the final day for UConn Gives 2023! Enjoy these scenes from our Winter 2023 Taiwan trip and consider donating to help students continue to participate in experiences like this! THANK YOU for your support! It truly changes the lives of our students. givingday.uconn.edu/o/university-o…

Super excited to announce the publication of my work on niche conservatism observed in brachiopods during the Late Devonian extinction event! It's been a long time coming. 🎉🎉 #extinction #AcademicTwitter Jaleigh Goben Jim Kerr royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Last weekend, students in ERTH 3230 Beaches and Coasts braved the ugly weather to study coastal processes.

Did you know that there is a dinosaur trackway behind Beach Hall? Students in ERTH 3010 Earth History and Global Change determined that the prints were left by Eubrontes dinosaurs who were on the run.

Our own Prof. Chris Fielding was featured as a keynote speaker at the 7th National Sedimentological Congress in Chengdu China.

What happens during a mass extinction? Get some answers from a new paper by @UConnGeoscience PhD student Sarah Brisson, featured this week in UConn Today! today.uconn.edu/2023/04/learni…

Current and former members of the @UConnGeoscience @UConnBAHTL contributed to this new paper that provides new insight into mountain building processes in the Patagonian Andes! doi.org/10.1029/2022TC…

@UConnGeoscience is grateful to Tilcon New York Inc for hosting our ERTH 3040 class on a visit to the Plainville Quarry in the Holyoke Basalt earlier this week!

Geoscience senior spotlight: Allison Rivera! "It’s cool to understand what shapes our landscapes and to be able to connect that to other physical sciences. I believe that [my major] will open up many career paths/opportunities and connect me to many other STEM fields."

Geoscience senior spotlight: Elliot Faulkner! "I majored in geoscience because I feel as though this is a field in which I can make a significant impact on the world, while also having an incredible time with interesting people."

Geoscience senior spotlight: Tommy Anderson! "I majored in geosciences because I’ve always been obsessed with natural disasters. I want to help save lives, whether it’s through early warnings or consulting on improved infrastructure."

Geoscience student spotlight: Lucas Durham! "I wanted a degree that would allow me to work closely with the environment after I graduated college. Since then, studying Geosciences has turned my career goal not only into a reality, but into a passion as well."

Geosciences senior spotlight: Charlie Sacco! "I love being able to read a landscape and being able to point out the various processes at work shaping and reshaping my surroundings."

Geosciences senior spotlight: Tatiana Sihpol! "I wanted to learn about the earth formations around me. I grew up interested in understanding the environment and plan on pursuing my Masters and PhD to teach other people structural geology and thermochronology!”

Geoscience senior spotlight: Kiely Hine! "I majored in geoscience to have an interesting degree that would provide me with plenty of career opportunities. I always had an interest in the environment and spent many years volunteering and then working at my local nature center."

Geoscience senior spotlight: Brigid Bernier! "I switched to the geoscience major after I took an introductory class. I always tried to learn more about geology in my free time, so after learning I could pursue geology as a career I was sold!"

Check out this new study by Hren's group @UConnGeoscience! "The height of mountains tells us about how or what the feedbacks are between processes in the atmosphere, climate, weathering, biology, and processes that are occurring deep in the earth." today.uconn.edu/2023/06/studyi…
