Field campaing in Moldova area

In the summer of 2013 together with Cristian Pop went on another 2 week long field trip to Moldova, to investigate mud volcanoes.

But we had a bad start...



 On the field with my colleague.



 Thinking about the next step...



 At about 2-3 km from the Prut river, I tried to locate the area where the presumed mud volcano is, according to the locals.



 Making soil gas measurements on an farm land.

 My colleague and our coordinator professor discussing the areas to investigate.



 Trying to figure out what these holes are...

 Trying to see them far more closer.:)

 A resting a few minutes to gather up energy to continue the field work.



 Atop of a mud volcano situated a corn field.



 On the way home at the Tihuta pass. 

    Going home tired from the field work.
