It is always great to work in #Alaska with @jrkielhofer on #soils and #geomorphology. However, this time we were even more fortunate to have @DRIScience writer Elyse DeFranco tag along and help us out! Check out her nice write-up on the trip!

[Desert Research Institute @DRIScience]

During the ITAP #Fieldwork in #Alaska, DRI's science writer tagged along for an inside look at the team's work. She joined two #Scientists with expertise in #SoilScience and #Paleoclimatology to see how they depict & map the layers beneath our feet. https://t.co/03EtawSG6Z.

Come chat with me about predicting stabilized dune ages in the MAC poster room! #INQUARoma2023 @AusQuaternary

[Nicholas R. Patton @NickRPatton]

Thanks to @DRIScience @UCNZ @UqEnvironment @ANSTO for all your help over the years!

[Nicholas R. Patton @NickRPatton]

If you are at #INQUARoma2023 come stop by Room 11 - Scienze della Terra CU005 @ 4:15-6:15pm!

The talks in this session should be great (Climate Records from Coastal Systems), don't let the 38C heat deter you from attending!

A new source of fire records, hidden in the sands, gives us a bigger picture of the risks https://t.co/MYcEwfMr6O via @ConversationEDU

[Nicholas R. Patton @NickRPatton]

Huge shout out to all my co-authors, research institutions, and organizations that help this project come together!

Excited to have this paper out 🔥- “Reconstructing Holocene fire records using dune footslope deposits at the Cooloola Sand Mass, Australia.”

@dphuber Illustrator is nice but real skill is when you use paint. Hahah

[Nicholas R. Patton @NickRPatton]

Congrats to Jennifer Kielhofer (@DRIScience ) and colleagues! Check out their new paper on temperature reconstruction for interior Alaska using #GDGT and and its potential effects on early human settlement.

New paper just out: "Hydraulic gradient and wave height control the success of estuary artificial entrance openings". Data from >135 openings shows that the hydraulic gradient controls the rates of change in channel expansion, drainage, and flow velocity during estuary openings🌊

Intl scientists, incl UC Prof @jamesshul1 & PhD graduate Dr @NickRPatton, share new insights into the origins of K’gari (Fraser Island) & the iconic Great Barrier Reef, which might date back to a time of climate change on Earth over 800k years ago. https://t.co/zOLdQJWtPE
