"A lot of people refer to it as social justice. I call it social injustice in terms of the people that are being exposed to poor air quality," Cluster member and University of #Utah faculty member told students during a 2022 #FieldTrip to the #GreatSaltLake.

Went to a garden park and played #frisbee today. It had been a while but some good throws and catches were had. Then wandered down to some shops and #markets at #Chatuchak There was a pet market there but it made me feel a bit sad to see sugar gliders, skinks, lizards, meerkats and capybaras for sale 😭 #Bangkok #FieldTrip #UrbanExplorer

Anomalous pebble in layered #sedimentary #rock
An angular pebble is conformably surrounded by argillaceous and sandy layers in this #photograph of the #Neoproterozoic #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate. The wide range of clast sizes led to an interpretation as a #glacial #tillite thru the 1970s, but the Squantum Member is now mostly interpreted as a #debrisFlow (#debrite or #turbidite). My #photo.

Deformed bedding in meta#sedimentary #rocks
The horizontal bedding of the #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate (#Neoproterozoic, #Boston Bay Group) has been disturbed locally.
In the #glacial #tillite interpretation of the Squantum (favored through at least the 1970s), the distortion might be caused by glaciotectonic drag at the ice base. The current interpretation as a #debrite or #turbidite would probably attribute the deformations to synsedimentary slumping. My #photo. #fieldTrip

The #glacier went that-a-way
The #striations on this face of the #Ediacaran (ca. 560 Ma) #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury #Conglomerate were probably left by the #Pleistocene #Laurentide ice sheet, which retreated ca. 12 ka. The striations have the right orientation, from northwest to southeast.
The Squantum Member was once interpreted as a (#glacial) #tillite. The most common contemporary model is a peri-#Gondwana #debrite (#turbidite).

Interbedded argillaceous & tuffaceous #sediments
These photos are of #Cambridge #Argillite, exposed above the #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury Conglomerate (#Neoproterozoic). Prior to the 1970s or so, the Squantum Member was interpreted as #glacial sediments; it's now broadly interpreted as debris flows, with the Cambridge being distal turbidites overlying it. I lead a field trip here for #UMassBoston. See captions.

#fieldtrip day 1: Quick coffee break in Bologna and reading up on the amazing #geology we'll see next week 😁
SATURDAY APRIL 29th!
If you're in and around the Palouse Prairie (PNW USA), you might find this interesting!

Our Critical Field Study of the Isle of Arran was so successful (and fun) we plan on doing it all again in a different location, so keep following us on the socials & become a member so you get the chance to join us next time.

LRG hosted a Field Study of the Isle of Arran, Scotland over 5 days in Oct for our members where we explored the island's landscape from diff perspectives & made great connections & friends.
You can read some of the reflections from the trip in a booklet we've put together👇

Earlier this week we ran our 3-day Biodiversity Coast-to-Coast field trip for the #LincolnUniversityNZ course Biological Diversity. This takes us from East Coast to West Coast across Te Waipounamu/NZ's South Island.
Students work in groups to lay out random 10 m by 10 m forest plots at each site, then photograph all the species they can find of certain taxonomic groups.
We'll be uploading our finds to #iNaturalistNZ over the next weeks.

@Geotripper action shot! Discussing Ss ideas about the story told in the famous Charlie Brown outcrop.
@Geotripper Starting the Geology of Death Valley in the Temblor hills outside of Bakersfield. Ss are getting oriented to the process of IDIng topography, then rocks and the geological story of a place.
Then off to see the Temblor Fm up close.
