  3. This panorama of lower Waahila Ridge from the 6th floor of the Harold St. John Plant Science building is intended to be a model for long term ecological monitoring of natural areas. We hope to be able to detect both successional changes in vegetation, and also climate induced changes to the ecosystem.

  5. From close below the Tetons, this panorama offers a detailed look at the geology of the range front. The Teton Glacier is best seen from this angle and there are a couple of mafic dikes that cut the Archean igneous and metamorphic rocks that make up the bulk of the Teton Range. Oh yeah, a few tourists and cyclists in...

  6. Shot from the dikes at Afferden. The dikes were built to counter the high water of the river Waal which can be seen in the back. These areas will flood in case of high water. Lots of cumulus clouds in the sky.
