The Search for Crocs in Oz

The Search for Crocs in Oz

Going to Australia, there are so many places to see, but one particular area that I can’t wait to experience is the Great Barrier Reef. I’ve been fascinated with the ocean and the ecology of it for my entire life, with a dream of seeing the Great Barrier. As this ecosystem is changing, I feel […]

WOW AUSTRALIA

WOW AUSTRALIA

When I think of Australia I am overwhelmed with the possibilities for biodiversity and diverse landscapes. I am so excited to explore it all. It is really hard to choose just one spot. But if I had to pick just one, I would say the Great Barrier reef. This is the place that I have […]

Amy in Australia

I am most excited to visit the rainforests of Queensland. I have traveled to many places in my life, but I have never experienced a tropical rainforest ecosystem.  I am excited to get out of my comfort zone, and experience a new culture for such a long time. I am also very excited to see so many […]

Psyched for ‘Straya!

Psyched for ‘Straya!

Australia is like no place I’ve ever been, so honestly I’m excited to go anywhere and everywhere. The Blue Mountains, Sydney, the beach, I’m excited to eat breakfast in the dining hall or sit on my host family’s couch with some vegemite. However one place I’m particularly excited to see is Tasmania! Hopefully we’ll see […]

Diving Deeper into Coral Reef Ecology at Lady Elliot Island

Diving Deeper into Coral Reef Ecology at Lady Elliot Island

Another day in paradise. Today marked our third day on Lady Elliot Island, and it’s easy to see that we’re all getting used to this. Waking up early isn’t a challenge with the bright sun and the cacophony of seabirds, but for once no one is upset, as our first activity is a quick snorkel […]

Journey to the top of Queensland – 5/4/18

Journey to the top of Queensland – 5/4/18

Today marked our last day at Carnarvon, with our next stop to be the Great Barrier Reef. Although we’ve stayed at Carnarvon Gorge longer than expected due to the cyclone off the eastern coast, it allowed us to explore even more of the beautiful park. We were woken again by the sounds of Laughing Kookaburras, […]

Great Times at Great Kepple

Great Times at Great Kepple

April 7, 2018 Our first full day on Great Kepple Island! We spent the morning in lecture learning about coral, coral reefs (there’s a difference!), conservation and the general weather trends that can dictate the biogeography of the ocean. While some had come into this program with invertebrate knowledge from classes at Lewis and Clark, […]

Planes, trains, automobiles and the amazing reef!

Planes, trains, automobiles and the amazing reef!

On April 10th I woke up to the sound of the train wheels clacking. It was 5:30 in the morning. I was so tired but also so thrilled to be traveling to a new destination. Soon after we woke from the comfy and unique accommodation of the train, we all gathered our belongings and hopped […]

Under the Milky Way Tonight

Under the Milky Way Tonight

  On April 3, 2018 we stayed at the Takarakka bush resort in Carnarvon Gorge. One of the many highlights of Carnarvon George is the sky. Specifically, the entire Milky Way. Which, as our tutor brought up, used to be a sight that everyone could see. It is because of our cities light pollution that […]
