The rock and ice mechanics lab at Lamont-Doherty is led by PIs Christine McCarthy and Ben Holtzman. Now, more than ever, we are in the process of growing our lab and building our experimental program. Along with a team of postdocs, undergrads, grads, techs, and longtime staff engineer Ted, we are rehabilitating and revamping some of the old equipment and building and buying new rigs for exciting new experiments on both rock and ice. You can follow along with our progress here.

Hanami 2019

Quite possibly the nicest hanami ever. Usually come mid-April we are freezing our butts off out there on the blue tarp. This year's hanami was warm and sunny. We had Atsuko Namiki visiting us from Hiroshima. We had a nice spread of food and Ben's shochu. Really nice time.
