Initial Post

This is my first blog so my apologies if this is not up to standards. I want to utilize this blog as a way to communicate to my students, friends, and family about my expeditions this summer. My first trip is to attend the International Polar Year Science Conference in Oslo, Norway. That is, if the volcano does not close the airports in Europe!
My second trip is an expedition to Churchill, Canada to study climate change and permafrost. This is a working vacation because I and my 11 team members will be conducting research (and fighting mosquitoes!) Thank goodness my brother lent me a hooded pullover made of mosquito netting.
