So happy to announce that I passed my PhD viva today 🥳 Had a lovely viva experience with some great discussions, thank you @DrMeltwater and @NiallGandy and Jon Dean. Thank you to my supervisors @DrNaomiHolmes @rob_storrar and Jon Bridge for their support over the years!
Here is my first entry for the #BSGAC24
I was inspired by field trips to Iceland during my PhD - here is a gouache painting of Fjallsjökull and proglacial lake Fjallsárlon! 🧊🏔️ @BSG_Geomorph
Here is my second entry for the #BSGAC24 On my first field trip to Iceland we were lucky to see Fagradalsfjall erupting! Here is a gouache painting of that eruption in the evening 🌋

Very excited that the first paper of my PhD is now published in the @journalofmaps The paper presents glacial geomorphological mapping from contrasting topographic settings at Skálafelljökull in southeast Iceland! 🇮🇸 doi.org/10.1080/17445647.202…
Had a fantastic week last week at @UoSGeogEnv with @Palaeolimnology looking at Icelandic chironomids! I’m very excited to see what they reveal!
What a great photo - Thank you @DrNaomiHolmes! Very exciting (and scary) to present my PhD research at @InquaRoma2023 Really looking forward to seeing what we find out from this core!
A big stage for @Geog_sarah this morning @InquaRoma2023. Interesting presentation outlining PhD research so far and future plans.

Amazing (if wet) day exploring Breiðamerkurjökull and thinking about how water interacts with ice.

A bit of lichenometry at Fjallsjokull today, and possibly the first time I have visited Jökulsárlón and not taken any pictures @shu_geog

Had a great day in the lab measuring the magnetic susceptibly of my little Icelandic core with @DrNaomiHolmes - all chopped up and ready for round two MS measuring!

A fun day of family focussed science outreach at the @sheffhallamuni Explore! Science event. Using 3D pollen from @3Dpollenproject

So exciting opening up my core from Káravatn in southeast Iceland at @UoM_GeogLabs! Excited to see what the itrax shows and lovely to be back at Manchester again as well!
