One of the first lake sites we were coring in Czechia back in 2015. Now mission accomplished. doi.org/10.1111/jbi.... What is behind these forests long-term stability? 🌲🔥🦠

The launch of a new European Plant Macrofossil Database (EuPlaMaDa) on the #Neotoma platform, as one of the key outputs of the COST Action #PalaeOpen, promises a significant step forward for palaeoecological research in Europe🥳 We welcome new volunteers to help with plant macrofossil data upload🤝

Two very successful PhD defences in #paleorudolph lab. Amanda Mateo Beneito explored multi proxy climate reconstruction and it's effect on vegetation dynamics. Kristýna Hošková paved new avenues in phytolith analysis and its use in environment reconstruction. Both with cum laude, congratulations!

Beginners' mistake: how can we recover sediment traps from the centre of this lake via very unstable ice? Nice excursion though ❄️💧☀️🔥🌲#biomarkers

Our new study out in @ScienceAdvances shows human presence in Tasmania at least 41,600 years ago, nearly 2000 years earlier than previously thought, and Aboriginal people burned and used wet forests. Link: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Landscape burning facilitated Aboriginal migration into Lutruwita/Tasmania 41,600 years ago

Paleoecological records show that Aboriginal people burned wet forest to first settle in Tasmania 41,600 years ago.
