Sedgwick Reserve

01 Nov, 01 AM - 05 Nov, 09 AM

As I discussed with you when we met in person, I will be using the hillslopes of part of Sedgwick to teach basic geomorphology to Dartmouth College undergraduate students enrolled in our department off-campus field program. I will have the class do a landslide analysis on the small landslide relatively near the Reserve Headquarters. This is the same site used by Manny Gabet for his class taught at UCSB last year and I will be following the same procedures: on-site surveying of the landslide, mapping of the stream channel, pebble counts, and basic landscape characterization. Nothing intrusive, collection oriented, or destructive in any way. This class provides the basis of geomorphic understanding to undergraduate earth sciences majors and generally spawns at least one or two independent research projects done by the students in subsequent years.
