Without the Quaternary, Earth would be warmer, wetter, and more stable—no ice ages, higher seas, or Great Lakes. Human evolution and civilization would be entirely different in a tropical, slow‑changing world. #QuaternaryScience #EarthHistory #HumanOrigins www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJvu...

When the going gets tough sampling super hard #rocks and you bend a solid steel chisel, you know it is time to call in help from #Wolverine! #MichiganErratics

Recurrent humid phases in Arabia over the past 8 million years - Nature A climatic record from desert speleothems shows that the central Arabian interior experienced recurrent humid intervals over the past 8 million years, which likely facilitated mammalian dispersals between Africa and Eurasia.

Always a good day when friends have a good day! Out today in NATURE (!) from Monika Markowska - 8 million year record of recurrent humid phases in Arabia.

Another excellent edition of Quaternary Australasia is out! I always enjoy the post-conference student reports, especially when the students seem to have really gotten into the 'AQUA vibe'!

Group of four students working together to the push the tall coring auger into the soil in a grassy field in Llangorse, Wales.

Two students hold an auger looking at a core just taken from a waterlogged grassy field in Llangorse, Wales.

Group of students and post doctoral assistant pose holding coring equipment, facing the camera. Standing in long grass in a field in Llangorse, Wales. Hedgerows and hills in the distance. Blue skies with light white clouds above.

A sediment core, with laminations showing (coloured bands ranging from cream and shades of brown) lying in the metal coring equipment flat on the grass. A tape measure sits along one side.

🥾☀️Our second-year Environmental Change students visited Llangorse, Wales for some sediment coring practice. Lots of enthusiasm for the Lateglacial sequences under sunny skies. Next step is to analyse the cores in the labs. #EnvironmentalChange #QuaternaryScience #RHULGeogUndergrad #RHULGeogResearch
