Application — paleoCAMP

Exciting news! Student applications for paleoCAMP 2026 are open! Are you a graduate student working on any aspect of past climates or environments? Apply to be part of our 2-week summer school in the eastern Sierra Nevada! More details here: paleoclimate.camp/apply

New paper alert! Former SES PhD student Leah Marshall alongside 2 SES profs, 3 former SES undergrads and colleagues investigate 15,800 years of carbon accumulation and environmental change in an Arctic watershed using lake sediment cores. Check it out! doi.org/10.1080/1523...

#newarticle by Marshall et al. investigates a unique pairing of Holocene lake sediment & soil records from central Alaska, highlighting the importance of sediment burial efficiency on carbon accumulation in high-latitude lakes: doi.org/10.1080/15230430.2025.2523083

Many thanks to my collaborators in @nau-ses.bsky.social and beyond for their help: Darrell Kaufman, Nancy Bigelow, Matt Bolton, Emily Cohen, Brooke Damon, Bruce Finney, @tephrabird.bsky.social, Nick McKay, Meriel Medina, @paleomunoz.bsky.social, Ted Schuur and @mzarowka.bsky.social

Ultimately, the carbon sequestration potential of this and other Arctic lakes is highly dependent upon the rate of sediment delivery.

This unique pairing of lake and hillslope sediment records allowed us to investigate millennial-scale changes in carbon accumulation across a watershed.

A 15,800 year record of productivity, carbon accumulation and environmental change at Eight Mile Lake and its catchment, central Alaska Despite their efficient burial of organic carbon (OC), the role of high-latitude lakes in storing and processing OC under changing climates is poorly understood. We investigate a 15,800 year sedime...

Check out our new paper about carbon, productivity and climate over 15,800 years in central Alaska. Out in @aaarjournal.bsky.social this paper pairs new sediment records from Eight Mile Lake with soil cores from the adjacent hillslope.

And please sign up to be an OSPA reviewer for a presentation in our session: agu24.ipostersessions.com?s=login&dest...

Join us for year 3 of Holocene Seds at #AGU24!! Excited to convene this great session w/ Annie Tamalavage, @deltadeuterium.bsky.social and @charlottewiman.bsky.social!

paleoCAMP is awesome! Paleo-inclined grad students, you should all apply!

this is so cool!!
