As part of our focus on understanding paleoenvironmental change during the early Paleozoic, members of the Historical Geobiology Lab are in England and Wales this June, collecting samples from the thick Cambrian, Ordovician and Silurian sequences in their type areas. Una Farrell and Erik Sperling are collecting samples from the wonderful and well-appointed British Geological Survey core repository, while Austin Miller endures type 2 fun sampling outcrops in the thickets and coastlines of rainy Wales. In the end we'll have an excellent record of the Welsh basin throughout its history.
