Because of *gestures around at everything*, we're extending the deadline for paleoCAMP applications one week to JANUARY 17th (letter writers always have a bit of leeway on the deadline as well). Contact me if you or your students have any questions or concerns or if you need even more extra time

Abrupt changes in biomass burning during the last glacial period - Nature An increase in wildfire extent and related greenhouse gas emissions can be linked to abrupt climatic changes during the last glacial period.

I'm thrilled to share our new @nature.com paper! We present ice core methane isotope data revealing that past abrupt climate changes likely triggered surges in wildfires, simultaneously driving rapid methane—and possibly CO2—rises 🌎🔥
