Lab techniques

These are two short videos are produced by Dr Mick Frogley, at Department of Geography, University of Sussex, and made available to students on the level 3 Palaeoenvironments & Human Impact course. The practical aspect of the course requires students to carry out a series of analyses on sedimentary core material - the size of the group and the constraints of the core site mean that it is impractical to take students into the field. As a result, staff carry out the coring procedure, film the proceedings and then make each individual part of the technique available as short downloadable video clips.
