On Dec. 9, 2024, we held our Zoom meeting to listen to the rehearsal of doctoral student Seungwoo for his presentation at the 2024 Winter Conference of the Korean Association for Geographical and Environmental Education (한국지리환경교육학회). It was also our last lab meeting of the year. Thank you all for your hard work!
On Oct. 30, 2024, I presented my recent research “The Physical Nature of Headwater Catchment Landscape in Mountainous Regions” conducted with Dr. Hui Chen, who is now at the Guangzhou Institute of Geography, Guangdong Academy of Sciences, at a seminar hosted by the Department of Soil, Water, and Climate in the University of Minnesota. It was the first presentation in English in my life that lasted over an hour, and I found it challenging toward the end^^.
n Sep, 27, 2024, doctoral student Seungwoo Ha set up the Tangible Landscape (실감형 경관) in his class to enhance students’ understanding of geomorphology in their everyday life space. Particularly, he utilized both the contour and flow accumulation tools within the Tangible Landscape.
On July 12–13, 2024, graduate students Hui Chen, Juyeon Kim, and Ha-eun Lee took a field trip to investigate the morphology and surface materials of several headwater catchments in Yeongwol-gun, Gangwon-province.
On June 28–29, 2024, Prof. Kyungsoo Yoo (Dept. of Soil, Water, and Climate, University of Minnesota), Ph.D. student Juyeon, and I conducted a field trip around Jeongseon-gun and Daegwanryeong-myeon to observe soil characteristics primarily influenced by lithology and their associated erosion.
On June, 7, 2024, graduate students and I conducted a field trip to the Daegwanryeong Samyang Ranch (대관령 삼양목장) to collect samples for exposure age dating.
On May 16, 2024, graduate student Ha-eun Lee flew a drone equipped with a LiDAR sensor at the top of the SNU Observatory to capture terrain data of a headwater catchment in Mt. Gwanak.
