The Marine Landscape Ecology Lab is part of the University of Washington School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences. We use drones, GIS, and image analysis to study the marine environment. https://sites.uw.edu/marlel/
Our team knows how to work quickly in the field. 😉 This time lapse shows the process of our team installing wave force dynamometers at one of our sites. The instrument locations will be mapped with drones with the data helping characterize the physical environment at our sites. @uwsafs.bsky.social

Our drone team has lots of interesting encounters when they are out in the field. This past weekend they encountered a black bear foraging at one of the rocky intertidal sites that they survey in British Columbia. @uwsafs.bsky.social @uwmarinebiology.bsky.social @uwenvironment.bsky.social

Sea landings can be tricky, often requiring hand catches. Here, grad student Taylor Trivino demonstrates hand catching a drone while wearing a work helmet, safety glasses, gloves & a PFD. When hand catching a drone it’s important to wear safety gear. @uwsafs.bsky.social @uwmarinebiology.bsky.social
