Once more unto the beach...

Knee pads compulsory....
So, technically, field work started in March this year with a trip to measure the SET's in South Carolina.
Carol and Zoe measuring shear strength on the marsh platform in South Carolina
But it's going to really kick off soon with a five day event measuring the marsh strengths in Rowley, MA (and grilling/beer drinking at Marshview) with the MBL folks. The Boston-based crew are then off to 'Faux France' for a week in May... (aka Canada). And we have a new field site to scope out for work in July with UNO investigating tidal bars in Georgia (open invite to anyone who doesn't eat much, doesn't really need to sleep and likes to carry heavy stuff around all day).

Anyway before long, Carol will find herself living the dream...
and we won't be able to get the mud out from underneath our toenails until the end of the field season (luckily for you no illustration). But we will take photos and keep you posted on the science we will be doing...
