Alpine Fieldwork


To give you greater variety we are expanding our normal field work to incorporate an Alpine Option. Obviously this provides a superb location for glacial studies, but it also presents a range of other study options working from a small private British owned and operated hotel in the small resort of Le Bettex near St. Gervais, which gives access to the Mont Blanc Massif with its excellent urban and rural settlements, agriculture, tourism and land use conflicts. It also, of course, adds another dimension to microclimate and biogeographical studies, extending the concepts already developed in the Mont Lozere Region with respect to ideas of conservation, preservation and sustainable development. This option will be available during May and early June and mid September through October.
