Successful 2022 Mulu Caves Expedition - much science, many ideas, many questions to answer. Fantastic group of explorers to join. #mulu #caves

Sampling has been going really well - we think ammonia from the bird poop might be the key to the aggressive dissolution - microbes!! @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

Just out from a 3 day science camp. We thought the bird guano might be involved in making the caves - it has a pH of 1.7! We might be right!! @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

We landed at 12:30 and we in Deer Cave by 3:00 PM, checking out the cupula flutes, then watching the moneys and seeing if there would be a bat flight. @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

Waiting at the Kuala Lumpur airport for the next flight and Max is studying for the polymer chemistry exam he has on our return … at 4:20 AM
