⚠️⚒️🧪⚛️⚗️Early Bird deadline for GGRiP 2025 ends *this Monday (10th)*: ggrip2025.co.uk It's a great conference for geochemists of all disciplines and especially for ECRs. @geolsoc.bsky.social #geochemistry #geology #earthscience @organiccarbon.bsky.social @climategordon.bsky.social l
A *first author* paper published pre-PhD is very rare in the UK geosciences (with 3yr bachelor degrees & only 1 year masters). It’s a huge achievement. Well done @mollytumelty.bsky.social. And well done @palaeostephan.bsky.social for being a supportive supervisor.

Memories from back in July BOGS2024 in Manchester. Thank you to Bart Von Dongen and the local committee for asking me to give the Keynote talk. Congratulations to the student prize winners - not least @geology_bham 's very own Gemma Baker (Best Poster). 🎉👏
Congrats to *Dr* Alice Hardman on defending her PhD Thesis: “Development and Calibration of 3-Hydroxy Fatty Acid-Based Palaeoclimatic Proxies in Pedogenic and Lacustrine Environments”
#Pembrokeshire 24 highlight: flexing on the flexural slip fault! Now heading home after 9 days of introductory field skills with our enthusiastic 1st year #Geology, Geology and Physical Geography and Palaeontology UG students. Iconic #Palaeozoic rocks #bruminthefield @geology_bham @paleobham
Only a few more days to apply to the Urbino Summer School in Paleoclimate! 9-25th JULY 2024! We have an amazing line-up of instructors this year ;-)

My Lapworth Museum lecture "Crete: Building a Palaeoclimatic Framework for Europe’s Oldest Civilisations" is available here: jamesbendle.wordpress.com/news-2/. Thanks to @drjaninaramirez.bsky.social & @digkabri.bsky.social who inspired a few of the slides! #Climate #Archaeology @csmfht.bsky.social
Tomorrow (Tuesday, 14th Nov, 5:30pm GMT) I’ll be giving a public lecture on the rich history of ancient civilisations on Crete, and how we are building a detailed climatic history for this unique island.
To watch remotely on Zoom, please register for the webinar here: ow.ly/3Vqx50Q5vfO
I have been collaborating with Dr Mark Kasumovic, an award-winning Canadian artist and academic based in the UK (De Monfort University). Links to his pics from our recent fieldwork in Vietnam and Crete here: jamesbendle.wordpress.com/media-and-ou...
