IGERT-TEECH: Trainee, Associate at Field Sites in Cyprus, Jordan
Description:
IGERT Trainee Matthew Vincent and associate Ashley Richter left San Diego on Aug. 25 for an expedition in Cyprus. From there in mid-September, the two Anthropology grad students flew to Jordan, where they are working on IGERT co-PI Tom Levy’s fall expedition in Faynan. In Cyprus, they explored an ancient mining complex at Skouriotissa northwest of Nicosia. Incoming grad student Ashley Richter carried out the LiDAR survey for the project that was focused on geomagnetism at the ancient copper-mining site; she is the recipient of a San Diego Fellowship to take part in the NSF IGERT program. Richter and Vincent are due back in San Diego on Nov. 27.
