We have had 100 responses to our BIKE THEFT SURVEY and the data are so interesting. Help us get 1000 responses. Had your bike stolen? Live in North America? We want to know how bike theft impacted you! AAG Transport Geography UC Santa Barbara UCSB Geography SPAR Lab @SBBIKELab

Two #mountainbiking #geomorphologists come upon a rock exposure. One says to the rock face, "What cracks you up?". The other says, "I hypothesize that carbonate precipitation and wetting/drying cycles does." Hence, a paper was born. doi.org/10.1016/j.cate… UCSB Geography SGSUP at ASU

Dear university administrators everywhere. Please pick a lane and stay in it with #LearningManagementSystems. My career journey, spanning 3 institutions: Moodle-Blackboard-Canvas-Moodle-Blackboard... now Canvas. I think I see a pattern here.

Having a fun time exploring the fabulous Washington coastline this week, taking grain size samples as I go. Physical samples, sandsnaps (cell phone image with coin for scale), AND a cool new sandcam made by Evan Goldstein and Ryan Mieras to play with 🤩 for instant grainification

Recent storm impacts on our Santa Barbara beaches. Impressive efforts underway to deliver sediment from upland retention basins. Unfortunately, these pics portend a future scenario the state asks us to prepare for... +3.5' of sea-level rise by 2050 UCSB Geography MSI UCSB
