It's #FieldworkFriday again!
Here some impressions from perhaps my favorite field trip so far. Summer 2016 in W/NW Alaska base in #Kotzebue and #Nome. Great weather, no mosquitos, awesome group of people.
We did a lot of different stuff, flight surveys, permafrost coring, water sampling, retrieving sensors.
