The launch of a new European Plant Macrofossil Database (EuPlaMaDa) on the #Neotoma platform, as one of the key outputs of the COST Action #PalaeOpen, promises a significant step forward for palaeoecological research in Europe🥳 We welcome new volunteers to help with plant macrofossil data upload🤝
Two very successful PhD defences in #paleorudolph lab. Amanda Mateo Beneito explored multi proxy climate reconstruction and it's effect on vegetation dynamics. Kristýna Hošková paved new avenues in phytolith analysis and its use in environment reconstruction. Both with cum laude, congratulations!
