Dr. Antoni Rosell i Melé was more than the head of @ImpactantG, he was a dedicated, considerate mentor and a dear friend to all of us who had the pleasure of working with him. He was a source of inspiration and is greatly missed.

Today, we are celebrating a meeting with all the PhD students of the PhD program in Environmental Science and Technology at @ICTA_UAB @UABBarcelona

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Impactant's Dr. @nina_davtian, Dr. Maria Raja, and Nuria Penalva Arias presented their novel methods of biomarker analyses for biomass burning and pyrogenic carbon at the IMOG 2021 in mid-September! Check out their 3 abstracts here

New paper out by Dr. Nadia Tarifa-Mateo, Dr. @arosellmele, et al! Pottery use in the mining site of variscite Mines de Gavà (Barcelona, Spain) during the 4th millennium BC based on organic residue analysis https://t.co/LMFmeoTPNR @ICTA_UAB #Prehistory @UABBarcelona #Archaeology

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Impactant's María Raja was interviewed about her most recent paper in which she & @arosellmele used #biomarkers to make a quantitative assessment of the #ocean's primary productivity (marine #phytoplankton). Listen via spotify, apple, or CienciaEs link below!

La investigadora María Raja habla de las alquenonas, un biomarcador que se puede utilizar para conocer la productividad primaria en el pasado. Podcast Hablando con Científicos #HablandoconCientificos https://t.co/TxwSq1Yb3E @cienciaes https://t.co/7dAIC8LIA7

[Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social @nina_davtian]

Dr. Maria Raja is now presenting « The potential use of sedimentary pyrogenic biomarkers to quantitatively reconstruct wildfires occurence and extension », with @arosellmele and myself among the co-authors

Check Maria Raja Sanchez, Pedro Rivas, Gorka Muñoa, Carles Moreu,Nuria Penalva, @nina_davtian, Joan Villanueva,@arosellmele's @EuroGeosciences poster 'The potential use of sedimentary pyrogenic biomarkers to quantitatively reconstruct wildfires occurrence and extension' @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Check out @OriolTeruel, @arosellmele, and Nuria Penalva's @EuroGeosciences talk at 11:42 GMT+2 'Global patterns of oceanic dust deposition during Pliocene-Pleistocene transitions.' #PALADYN @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Yesterday the SDG stopped in the Grand Canaries + now they are off to their final destination Vigo, to arrive Monday. The #Paladyn crew is excited to bring back samples + stories from their long journey crossing the hemispheres! #SAGA10W @OriolTeruel @nina_davtian @arosellmele

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Today on the Sarmiento the other #SAGA scientists learned about #Paladyn's projects through seminars from @nina_davtian on 'Dissolved Pyrogenic carbon in the water column' and @OriolTeruel on Dust: its interaction with climate and how it has changed over time. @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

@OriolTeruel @nina_davtian @arosellmele @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

The SDG is cruising & spirits are high! March 27 they were 27°S of the equator and yesterday they reached 19°S. Now they are in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), a belt of high precipitation, what we are tracking in #Paladyn using air, water, and sediment samples.

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

The #Paladyn crew filters water column samples & in- transit surface samples for pyrogenic carbon (any organic molecule formed by incomplete combustion of wildfires) within dissolved & particulate matter, that's been transported and deposited by atmospheric circulation.

[ICTA-UAB @ICTA_UAB]

Good luck guys, have fun and enjoy the oceanographic campaign! See you in April, @ImpactantG team! 💪💪

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Lots of smiles from the female scientists on the Sarmiento de Gamboa as they get ready to cross the Atlantic a few days into the cruise!
#SAGA #Paladyn @ICMCSIC

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

The SAGA cruise spirits are high after 3 days of sailing with bad weather and 6 meter waves!

#Paladyn @ERC_Research @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

The Sarmiento de Gamboa arrived yesterday evening in Punta Arenas! After a long 3 weeks wait, @arosellmele, @nina_davtian, & @OriolTeruel of the #Paladyn project and the #SAGA10W Oceanographic campaign team boarded today at 6pm. Bon voyage and happy sampling! @ICTA_UAB

[ImpactantResearchGroup @ImpactantG]

Lipid analyses reveal new insights into pottery use in Early Neolithic settlements in the Barcelona plain 🪴🐄🐐 ImpactantG researchers Adrià Breu, @arosellmele, and colleagues report their findings in Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences https://t.co/NSR8r1HWgt
