A fantastic week at #EGU23 in Vienna. I had the chance to present my research on soil erosion monitoring in the Arctic tundra. It was great to meet old and new colleagues and explore all the exciting research that is going on. Thanks for the support @ScotArcticNet #ArcticScot

We were thrilled to host scientists in #palaeoecology & #dendrochronology from @StAndrewsSGSD & @EarthSciStA at #Corrour this week. They were collecting historical #bog #pine & #peat core samples to track drivers of past environmental change & inform future woodland management.
