This is just a short post to say that field work we were preparing for is now postponed for 12 months due to COVID-19. Almost all work at our labs has been moved to mandatory work-from-home for as long as necessary. I, like most of my colleagues, work on a mix of lab work, field work, and analysis and paper writing. These later two can be conducted almost anywhere. I feel grateful that I can still work and lucky to still have employment. While the sight of boxes half-packed for shipment in the sitting on the lab floor, and instruments ready for flight sitting on the bench as we left the building caused a small pang of worry for the important science around the world that is now on pause, responding well to the current crisis is what matters for the time being.
