It's been a busy 2023 for UTALL 📅 We've grown our team (myself, Ayush, Karissa, Diana, Cindy Lou, Jeffrey, and Julia), hosted visitors (Caleb from U Buffalo and Drew from Bates), processed a bunch of samples (our reader turned 1 this summer 🎂), and launched a bunch of exciting projects.
Ayush and I wrapped up our SCEC grant along the Mission Creek fault strand (we'll be back next month for more 🥾). Karissa returned to Yellowstone to collect more samples from hydrothermal explosions (after 18 months of struggle, we think we're finally onto a promising strategy 🕵️♀️🕵️♂️). Jeffrey has been sifting through the sands of Texan rivers to develop provenance fingerprints ☝. Diana and Julia are preparing for our first field trip of our newly awarded NSF grant to study ventifact development in the Mojave 🎒. Cindy Lou is learning to love MATLAB before her upcoming field work in the Beartooth Mountains 🏔.
We're hoping for a 2024 filled with good food and low single-grain overdispersion.
