A reminder of our early career event happening on TUESDAY July 18th! #bogs2023 #ECR #earlycareerscientist

The team are ready for Monday and looking forward to welcoming you all to #BOGS2023 Geography at Durham. We'll see you at the icebreaker event on Sunday or at the conference registration from 9am on Monday! Abstract booklets have just gone out to all registrants 🗓️

Session 7 was on Novel Biomarker Proxies and we had some fantastic talks on some really diverse themes: from Mars to Madagascar! With that the #BOGS23 talks have concluded and we are blown away the quality of all - now we have some lab tours and our ECR event🧪

Interested in an overview of biomarker proxies in Quaternary science? check out the article by me, Helen Mackay and #ANTSIE team members Claire Penny, Mark Stevenson Thale Damm-Johnsen Ellie Honan Yas (she/her) published in Journal of Quaternary Science today🥳onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

#ANTSIE team had a busy day showing our European Research Council (ERC) and The Leverhulme Trust snow petrel stomach oil deposit work to secondary school children as part of the Durham-Newcastle-Northumbria Uni Polar Environments Day. Huge thanks to the organisers! @AntarcticGlacie

Study from Geochemistry colleagues at Newcastle University reveals retention ponds and wetlands constructed as part of major road schemes can reduce tyre particle pollution by 75%🚗ncl.ac.uk/nes/news/news-…

Interested in seabird archives of Antarctic sea ice? Two opportunities to learn about our #ANTSIE project today #EGU24: Claire Penny outlines the last 2000 yrs (12.15 room 0.14) and Mark Stevenson pushes back through the Holocene (14.54 room L3) in the Weddell Sea Geography at Durham

And Mark provided a longer term perspective on sea ice change in the Antarctic session

Last chance #egu24 to hear about our new climate archives! Geography at Durham The Leverhulme Trust #ANTSIE

Well done Thale! Great talk! Lovely to finish the session on this unique proxy #ANTSIE Thale Damm-Johnsen

Geography at Durham #antsie team is all set up at Life Science Centre to talk about ancient bird vomit and what it can tell us about past Antarctic sea ice/climate change 🐤❄️

Antarctica’s rapidly receding sea ice could have a negative impact on the food supply of seabirds like albatrosses and petrels, according to our new research with Geography at Durham Durham University 👉 ow.ly/O2fA50TmNbN

Our #ANTSIE summer intern Eve Sharples has written a blog about her work with Antarctic petrels, including stable isotopes, morphometrics and some genetics. Looking forward to all the results coming through in the coming months😀 Geography at Durham Prof Darren Grocke antsie.webspace.durham.ac.uk/2024/10/21/bir…
