[Geoldept] Ring in 2025 with some fun field work

[Bernard Housen]

Hello Geology Folks,
Hope you are enjoying the final couple of days of 2024, and looking forward to a most excellent 2025.

As I wrote back in November, I am asking for some help with the project we are running to assess effects of Engineered Log Jams, being done for the Lummi Nation.

This is also going to be the bulk of my MS student's (Jake Peckenpaugh) thesis project, so this will also be a good help to his project.

When we did the field work in December, the GPR control unit failed, so we were not able to collect GPR data from two of our four field sites. We were able to collect the resistivity data from all four areas, though.

The GPR unit is repaired, and we have set up two make-up days with the folks from Lummi Nation Natural Resources- because we're only doing the GPR data, the field time and the effort to haul the gear in and out of the field site will be a bit easier.

The make up dates are Monday Jan 6 and Tuesday Jan 7, we will leave here between 8:30 and 9:00 AM, and be back in early afternoon (like 2-3 PM at the latest).

We will still need to have 3-4 people each day to help lug the equipment through the woods to the field sites, help us set it up, and then lug it all back out. As with the other field work, it will be a delightful opportunity to learn about surficial geophysics and gain some field experience.

If you can help out, (or if you have questions) please contact me (bernieh at wwu.edu)-<mailto:bernieh at wwu.edu)-> let me know which day(s) you can help us on.

My aim is to get the roster of helpers set up by the end of next week so we can get all the details planned out.

Thanks, and happy holidays!

Bernie
