Fossils suggest that lions once roamed across the Northern Hemisphere, but populations have dwindled since the last ice age. Was climate change part of the story? @tompavey_ is trying to find out!🦁

Meet PhD researcher Tom Pavey 🦁
Tom’s work bridges the past, present and future, assessing rapid climate change impacts on lion distribution and behaviour across their range.
He is also an enthusiastic science communicator via film and public events.

🛰️🌍 The third edition of the Earth Observation Remote Sensing Workshop has begun for 30 brilliant Master’s and PhD #students from 13 different countries! 🤩
✨ ESA Academy welcomes them to the Training and Learning Facility at ESEC-Galaxia in Belgium for an intensive yet exciting week! 🚀
👩💻 They will meet experts from all over Europe and learn about cutting-edge remote sensing technologies.
The training course has started with an introduction to Remote Sensing and ESA Earth Observation missions. The students have already applied their acquired knowledge in image visualization during practical exercises. 🌐 🌍
Throughout the week they will learn many different earth observation tools covering different wavelengths from optical to infrared and radio waves. 🌈 💻
The rest of the week awaits the students with more lectures and new stimulating exercises! 💫

Over the last two days I also attended @ThePalAss' Ecological Uniformitarianism II conference, exploring if we can use palaeontology to help understand ecology, climate and conservation in the present and future
