As the academic year of 2021/22 came to a close, the Tropical Ecology and Entomology Lab (TEE Lab) embarked on an adventure to Danum Valley Field Centre (DVFC) in Sabah, Malaysia to conduct a 2-week long field course. As part of the module ES2302: Introduction to Field Ecology, 20 Environmental Earth System Science (EEES) undergraduate students from the Asian School of the Environment (ASE) and 4 postgraduate students from the University Malaysia Sabah (UMS) and their lecturer Dr Evan Quah.
From learning various skills for surveying and monitoring biodiversity to exploring a multitude of habitats with varying disturbances, this field course allowed students to experience and acquire knowledge in a completely different environment. To find out what the students have been up to, do click on the video above.
This course was organised and led by TEE Lab's PI Dr. Eleanor Slade, PhD student Ong Xin Rui and Project Officer Marx Yim.
