Jack Richardson is a geologist and PhD researcher based at the University of Birmingham, where he studies the secret world of salt! Using drones and magnetic techniques he is trying to piece together how evaporite rocks (salts that formed when ancient oceans dried up) have flowed and deformed underground. We talk to Jack about his fieldwork in Nova Scotia, Canada, and find out about the importance of science communication, sleep, and friendship whilst on fieldwork.
