Distracting myself from local and international chaos I stumbled upon a lunch I am calling ‘The Coldplay’; please don’t add to the chaos by judging either the musical reference or the food choices. Take care.

It's been a fantastic #AGU25 week for Hydroclimate2k - lots of new H2k friends made at the poster session, SO many amazing Common Era hydroclimate talks, and an H2k lunch so fun that I forgot to take a photo. A great reminder of what a wonderful global community we have :) #21daysof2k

The snowgum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) is one of the (relatively) few Australian tree species with clear annual rings. Researchers at Adelaide Uni and ANU are using snowgum cellulose d18O to produce a new record of alpine hydroclimate over past centuries #21daysof2k @pages-ipo.bsky.social

Did you know the current Hydroclimate2k project isn't the first time PAGES 2k has dipped a toe into understanding global hydroclimate? In 2016, researchers gathered in Palisades, USA to discuss data-model comparisons of Common Era hydroclimate. Read about it here: pages2kpmip3.github.io #21daysof2k

Some of the beautiful varves from Nar Gölü, Türkiye. Each pair of layers represents one year of lake sediment. The varves tell us about hydroclimate e.g. where they change colour, as do the proxies we measure from them e.g. Dean et al 2015 QSR 124:162 #21daysof2k @pages-ipo.bsky.social

One of the current flagship activities of PAGES 2k is compilation of the Hydroclimate2k database. This map shows records currently being assessed for inclusion, with more records being added by a global team of project members. Read more here: agu.confex.com/agu/agu25/me... #21daysof2k

Throwback to 2017 when Iso2k project members met up in Zaragoza, Spain for the first (and only!) in-person workshop of a mammoth five-year database collation effort. Here we are, variably spelling out the name of the project or providing an enthusiastic backdrop #21daysof2k @pages-ipo.bsky.social

In 2019/2020 Kangaroo Island (Australia) was devastated by severe bushfires. Researchers at the University of Adelaide are developing new Common Era lake and speleothem records to discover how fire and rainfall regimes on KI are changing with climate change #21daysof2k @pages-ipo.bsky.social

The PAGES 2k Network (pastglobalchanges.org/science/wg/2k-network) has been investigating the climate of the last 2000 years since 2008. The Network is currently focusing on hydroclimate, co-ordinated by scientists from 8 countries over 5 continents #21daysof2k @pages-ipo.bsky.social

The March Nottingham The Green Runners meet-up @ Long Eaton parkrun. 🏃🏻🏃‍♀️ Great to welcome Nick (who missed the photo) to his 1st meet-up. 👋 After a 5k run in beautiful spring sunshine the group litter picked 🗑️ before enjoying a chat over a coffee. ☕️ 🧵 1/2
A band of four Green Runners post parkrun with their bags of litter. Strong work from the team.
