Will Harcourt and Morrigan Jones from the Department of Geography visited Robert Gordon's College on Wednesday 21st February 2024 to discuss their research on glaciers; both on Earth and Mars!
Will Harcourt discussed the importance of glaciers to our society and showcased some amazing stories of his fieldwork in locations such as Svalbard. The students were amazed to see the spectacular pictures of glaciers up close! Morrigan also shared some incredible images, this time of glaciers on Mars – a completely new topic for many of the students which put the study of glaciers on Earth in an ‘other wordly’ context. The visit was well received and we look forward to future visits to the school!
