[Geoldept] Nooksack River field work volunteers

[Bernard Housen]

Hello Geology Folks,
Hope you are enjoying the grey and blustery start to November. I am writing to ask 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.

As we did back in September, we will be collecting geophysical data (GPR and Electrical Resistivity) at four locations along the banks of the Nooksack River.

Each location will require a separate field day (leave here at 9:00 AM, get back between 2-3 PM), and this is the wet season collection phase.

We will be doing the field work on Dec 2-6 (the last week of classes, aka, Dead Week)- the plan will be to get the work done on Dec 2-5, with the 6th as a contingency date.

We need to have 4-6 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. 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 November!

Bernie
