University of Minnesota field station (est. 1907) inside of Itasca State Park (est. 1891). Conservation forerunner. Common ground for nature, science & people.
Read about our incredible exchange with @ItascaBio this summer. I was lucky to get to learn from @shroominn -- thanks to @OBFSFieldBio for supporting this exchange (highly recommend to other field stations out there)
The @UMich Biological Station and the University of Minnesota Itasca Biological Station and Laboratories took time this summer to learn from each other. Teams visited their counterpart’s campus as part of a field station exchange program. @ItascaBio@UMBS https://t.co/GbThQEKpEb
@geewhiz_ephys Nice! And welcome back from the staff, too:) Hope you saw a meteorite or two shred through those aurora currents. Looks like good conditions this week. Enjoy Itasca.
Station just said goodbye to 110 people with Hydrogeology field camp, RIDGSs workshop, Iowa State demming lake research crew, Science of Craft students, and a sustainability retreat group. Still crankin’, and it’s lovely! @umncbs
