Post sunset glow, with a sea of fog hugging the mountain.
Today was the last day of #KR10, with workshops this morning, and then some touristing this afternoon. The Aussies, Kiwis, and a couple of honorary Aussies and Kiwis made the treck up Lion's head for sunset. Special times with friends new and old. I've been […]

A workshop group learning about the integration of speleothem data from SISAL into the Neotoma Paleoecology Database. People are arranged around a square table, while the presented talks.
Really exciting to see the SISAL and speleothem community working with @neotomadb.bsky.social to improve a whole-environment understanding of the past! #kr10 #paleoecology #paleoclimatology

Microsfossils. The most exciting is the small shrew tooth, the brown one third from the top.
Fossil bed. Most of these are the now extinct short necked long horned giraffe, of which they've found 300 individuals!
An artists rendition of the short necked giraffe. Made from driftwood collected nearby. Note the eucalypt tail!
Excellent mid-week field trip to the West Coast Fossil Park today! The fossil beds are incredible, I had a lot of fun picking through sediment in their sieves for microfossils. Found a shrew tooth, which was pretty exciting!
The short necked giraffe is a […]

Great first day of #KR10. I've been told my talk was "entertaining" which feels slightly backhanded 😅

Apologies for missing a couple talks by Silvia Frisia and Adam Hartland. Listening to Gang Xue now, talking about 14C in speleothems from dissolved and carbonate ages. Ages are consistently older than U-series dates because of old soil carbon pools. #kr10 @pages-ipo.bsky.social

Now @arachnocampa.bsky.social talking about dating difficult speleothems at #kr10.
Nice to start the day off with geochronology!

Now Christopher Kinsley talking about Curaçao stalagmites and the IBIS Bayesian approach for age-depth models in U-Th dating. Learning lots about how we need to modify our age modeling tables in @neotomadb.bsky.social! #kr10 @pages-ipo.bsky.social @pickeringrobyn.bsky.social

One thing I’ve already learned at #kr10 that really surprised me is that most work is done on stalagmites, because the interaction between flow-water and the cave atmosphere is a critical element in capturing the climate signal. I’ll have to learn more, but I think that’s the gist 😅

Cool talk by Denis Scholz about geochronology, laminae counting and Monte Carlo simulation. Now Georgina Luti talking about petrography and the dating of the Cradle of Humankind. #kr10 @pages-ipo.bsky.social @pickeringrobyn.bsky.social

A picture of the opening slide for the Karst Record 10 meeting. A lecture hall filled with happy and excited people.
Excited to be representing @neotomadb.bsky.social at the #kr10 karst and speleothem meeting in Cape Town, South Africa! Looking forward to learning more about speleothems!

First day of #KR10 today! I'm presenting after lunch on the past few years of work done at ANSTO/UNSW, and what we're working on now. This is the first time ever that I've gotten to get my presentation done and dusted on day 1, I'm looing fwd to being able to relax and enjoy the rest of the week.

People standing on a raised walkways above a collapsed gallery in sterkfontein cave. The sun is out, and the sky has some puffy white clouds.
A collapsed cave, showing some dolomite mixed with infilled sediments. The sediments are FULL of fossils.
Large cave decorations - huge stalactites and shawls line a wall. The calcite is white and shining, and the formations are bigger than you can imagine.
Day 2 of the #KR10 field trip took us to three caves in the cradle. Sterkfontein (home of famous australopithecus' little foot and Mrs Ples), Coopers (we got to get into the deposit and look for fossils - SO MANY!) And Wonder - the biggest formations I've […]

The brain cast, face, and jaw of Tuang child, the Australopithecus africanus holotype. They were just a child.
The complete hand bones of an A. naledi female. One of the sisterhood.
Rock art of a zebra, faintly visible.
Really fantastic first day of the #KR10 field trip. Got to say hi to some distant relatives (Australopithecus africanus, A. naledi, A. prometheus), see some amazing art at the Origins Centre (a reminder that humans have been making art for a long time), and […]

This year I'm flying further than ever before to work with a new @neotomadb.bsky.social community! We're running a #speleothem data workshop in Cape Town, SA in March of this year with Socorro Dominguez, Laura Endres and Nikita Kaushal at the #KR10 conference.

Hello, hi. I'm Lea, an amateur film photographer hoping to show more people some of the moments I've captured. This app seems to actually appreciate people and art so I thought why not start over here. I hope you enjoy
