"Hurricane Fiona was a wake-up call for Nova Scotia," says NSCC’s Tim Webster. As erosion forces a lighthouse to relocate, it’s a reminder we need to take climate risks seriously. Read more: t.ly/4rfAg #AGRG #Geomatics #ClimateChange #CoastalResearch 🌊

It’s a bird… it’s a plane… it's AGRG! Geomatics researchers flew over NSCC Annapolis Valley Campus today capturing aerial photos and data. Check out the view. 🚁🌍 #NSCC #Geomatics #ResearchersofNSCC #AGRG

Dr. Tim Webster and geomatics researcher Lauren are in St. John's for the @NAIA_NL Cold Harvest Seaweed Workshop. Don’t miss Tim’s talk on our tri-college project with @CNA_News and @smartestkitchen using lidar to map wild kelp for seaweed aquaculture operations. 🌊🍃 #AGRG

We are so thankful for our amazing Industry Liaison Office, Joanne, and for all the support and connections from @SBAtlantic. Love this photo!

Throwback to NSCC's geomatics research scientist, Dr. Tim Webster's, podcast with @_researchNS.

Watch @drwaynegroszko’s interview with @BNNBloomberg on tackling energy storage challenges. From heat storage packets to using closed coal mines as water batteries, Wayne and his team are leading the way in sustainable solutions. Video here ⬇️bit.ly/3XKOwEx

AGRG had a whirlwind summer of fieldwork! From collecting coastal, river and forestry data to investigating water damage from rains in West Hants, it was non-stop action. They wrapped up work on the kelp project, a multi-year collaboration with @smartestkitchen and the @cna_news.

This week’s new story: Nova Scotia researchers look at the big issue around clean energy…how to store it, by @zackmetcalfe. climatestorynetwork.ca/the-next-clean… #LCC #novascotia #climatestories @hci3_fund @NSCCNews @NSCCResearch @WayneGroszko

AGRG has studied faulted rocks from the Permian age off Cape John for years, even publishing in GeoScience Canada. They reconstructed how these ancient rocks shifted over time. Ocean currents have kept them clean, revealing a clear picture of Earth's history.

Our geomatics research lidar team is gearing up to take flight over Sable Island. They'll be capturing topo lidar data and orthophotos to explore and map this unique landscape. Stay tuned for more updates from the skies! #AGRG #LidarMapping #SableIsland #ResearchInAction

It’s bittersweet to say goodbye, but we’re thrilled to see Michael, an NSCC Electronic Engineering grad and long-time research associate, taking the next step in his career. Read more about Michael's time at the College: bit.ly/3zwSpmV #NSCCProud #ResearchersofNSCC

Exciting news! 🌟 Canada is investing $18M+ through @InnovationCA to support college research. NSCC’s Mathew Vankoughnett & team got $500K+ to create an Agriculture Biotechnology Cool Climate Centre. 🌱🔬 Learn more about this investment: innovation.ca/news/college-f…

Messages like these from our students make all our work and research so rewarding. Huge shout out to the incredible Lisa Mader, the woman leading groundbreaking social science research at @NSCCNews.
