No @QuaternaryRA_UK #QRA24 for me. But lots of exciting @ESSILeeds research being presented.
Check out @amymcg questioning the Quaternary chronostratigraphy of the S. North Sea and Megan Edwards presenting our new palaeoenvironmental reconstructions from the RISeR project [1/2]
We are converging on Manchester for #QRA24, keen to showcase what our @QuaternaryRA_UK funding has achieved so far and our plans for the next 3 years. If you see this on someone's name badge, ask away!
A few highlights from last weekend's field trip around London - no exposures but plenty of excellent science #urbangeology #engineeringgeology @QuaternaryRA_UK
And that's a wrap! So much new knowledge from the once in a lifetime infrastructure project that is @HS2ltd and great conversations about how to continue the Learning Legacy. Watch this space! @QuaternaryRA_UK @EngGroupGeolSoc
Following an impassioned case for a larger MIS 6 glaciation than previously recognised from Seb Gibson we are now hearing from Vincenzo Oriano about technical characteristics of glaciofluvial sediments @EngGroupGeolSoc @HS2ltd @QuaternaryRA_UK
After our first session and a quick coffee break, we are back with Julian Murton outlining periglacial landforms and processes to help explain what we might see in the landscape @HS2ltd @EngGroupGeolSoc @bmi1854
Good morning Birmingham! Its a glorious morning @bmi1854 to hear more about the Quaternary engineering geology of @HS2ltd at our joint meeting with @EngGroupGeolSoc. Let's get to it!

Fantastic to visit @SEELeeds @geo_futures Year in Industry students at @fugro today, who are directly experiencing the role geosciences have to play in the energy transition. As discussed @QRAQuatEng conference, a pipeline of geological talent is key to realising NetZero.
If you missed it or just want to rewatch - we have a recording of @Davyg50 Wiley Lecture 'Quaternary engineering geology - are we there yet?' from the @QuaternaryRA_UK ADM in January available on the @EngGroupGeolSoc youtube channel - youtube.com/watch?v=sVaF7x…. Worth a look!
Wow - just looking back at last weeks conference - what a brilliant couple of days. We all learnt so much. Thank you to everyone who contributed and hopefully many positive steps forwards will result #QRAAMD2023 @QRAQuatEng @EngGroupGeolSoc

After 2 fantastic days of talks & discussions, a massive thank you to @QuaternaryRA_UK @QRAQuatEng for the excellent Annual Discussion Meeting, which had to be held online only at last minute. Also thanks to the organisers for all the hard work in delivering such a great event!

Have very much enjoyed hopping in and out of the @QuaternaryRA_UK @QRAQuatEng meeting the last few days.
Thanks to those who took the time to organise. 👏
#QRAADM2023
All done and dusted. Thank you to all our participants from both academia and industry and elsewhere for such a fascinating and constructive meeting. Once we have all had a bit of a lie down we will be back to our plans to save the 🌎 #QRAADM2023 @EngGroupGeolSoc @QuaternaryRA_UK
Our final talk before this afternoon's discussion session is about historical settlement abandonment in the Atlantic island of Cabo Verde from Alvaro Castilla-Beltran #QRAADM2023 @QuaternaryRA_UK @EngGroupGeolSoc @GeolSoc
Next up after our poster session we are back into the low carbon world learning about geological disposal facilities with Simon Norris from Nuclear Waste Services #QRAADM2023 @QuaternaryRA_UK @EngGroupGeolSoc @GeolSoc
