Blog of blogs 2017

2017 has been a busy year here at the School of Geography, and to round up the year and give you an idea of what we do, we have put together a collection of blogs relating to research from the School, which we hope you will enjoy.

We would also like to wish you a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year from all the staff in the School of Geography.
