Last week we had a great time visiting @GEO3BCN_CSIC in Barcelona and carried out some tephra sampling. 🥼🌋We also took a trip to see some of the volcanic cones of La Garrotxa.

Now online👏: The latest #LakeSuigetsu #tephra Late-glacial paper led by @pgalbert17 and featuring @Dr_DMcLean @HannahMBuckland @gwydsd91 @RichardStaff25 @SophieVineberg @DaisukeIshimura @viccsmith. #水月湖 🇯🇵🔬🔥🌋 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Fig. 7. A: SG14 cryptotephra layers plotted against the Lake Suigetsu pollen based mean annual temperature reconstruction spanning the Late-glacial to early Holocene (Nakagawa et al., 2021). Red line: 100 year moving average. Also shown are the local Suigetsu Pollen (SGP) event stratigraphy marking the boundaries between Stadial (S) and Interstadial (I) conditions and the onset of the Holocene (H) (Nakagawa et al., 2021).

We had a great time at #INQUARoma2023 (even in the scorching temperatures 🔥!!) It was fantastic to catch up with Quaternary colleagues around the globe! 🦣 Thanks for the great feedback and interest in our projects (and minimal judgement on our sweaty meltdowns!). 😍
