The Early Pages

A blog by and about early-career researchers. We focus on past global changes and the people that study them.

New post! This one is all about tiny water creatures and abrupt climate change. @joannaT1995 explains how we can use ostracods (seed shrimps) to study past climate events and why they help us understand the present and the future. https://t.co/P15q6LxFgj

New post! @mlawler678 sheds light on a drastic decline of the caribou population in North America. Why are the great survivors of the Late Pleistocene Extinction struggling to survive today, and what role does modern climate change play? https://t.co/pJybSwFoNr

New post: A personal story of grief and depression. Mental health issues are prevalent among ECRs, yet many carry their burden alone. Open conversation is key to removing stigma, and we are thankful to the author for sharing their story: https://t.co/vkbQOAGJe8

New post on the Early Pages! We asked ECRs how the #COVID_19 pandemic is impacting their work and daily life. Read 12 stories by ECRs from all over the world in which they share their thoughts, concerns, and new work routines:

In our latest post, @elignaciojara shares his fieldwork experience from northern Chile, where #climate research is accompanied by spectacular landscapes, llamas, and fossil rodent middens: https://t.co/ylCkHQSX4j

Collaboration is essential for scientific success. In our newest post, Annette Bösmeier introduces a guide specifically for #ECRs and presents some reflections on both benefits and difficulties in scientific collaboration: https://t.co/NK0yGRYPRr

In our newest post @gloverkatherine reflects on her first PI role, the inevitable difficulties of fieldwork and the art of balancing of her scientific needs with the expectations and interests of students, collaborators, and local communities https://t.co/2mEZv8FiDJ

The lack of oxygen might be problematic for modern limnological processes but it creates unique archives of past environments at the bottom of the lakes.

New post on The Early Pages! @mzarowka shares his work on Polish lake ecosystems and how they have been influenced by human activity over the past 2000 yrs. It's an interesting read and doesn't hold back on words containing an "x": hypoxia, meromixis, complex, multiproxy!

[Alicja Bonk @AlicjaBonk]

Great post! I did my #PhD on this #varved #lake and I am extremely happy to learn more about it!

[The Early Pages @TheEarlyPages]

Get ready to dive into a post about suffocating lakes! @mzarowka takes us on a 2000-year journey of human societies, land use, and the influence on lake ecosystems. Featuring Polish lakes, #hypoxia, and wonderful illustrations by the author: https://t.co/piFjpR1JMp

[Past Global Changes @PAGES_IPO]

New blog post @TheEarlyPages: Julieta Martinelli talks about how paleoscientists can (and should better) communicate to decision-makers and the wider community that the past needs to be studied to understand the present and predict the future. https://t.co/ukZiqYSiDL @PAGES_ECN

[The Early Pages @TheEarlyPages]

We need to look to the past to understand the present and predict the future. In our latest post, @julishells talks about how paleoscientists can and should better communicate this fact to decision-makers and the wider community: https://t.co/nBzflWoj5X

Sometimes we think of our research projects as our children. Is raising a child also like doing a PhD? In our latest post, @Hung_TT_Nguyen's shares the struggles and beauty of being both an ECR and a parent: https://t.co/ZYIC6n96hq

[The Early Pages @TheEarlyPages]

This is such an important issue!
We feel inspired by @BH_Francis who shared her story about doing a PhD with chronic illness with us a while ago. Raising awareness and creating visibility is so important. Follow @vitaminseafilm and read Beth's post here: https://t.co/1YR5Q4AtXO

[Chronically Academic @chron_ac]

1/So I'm sure everyone doing a PhD (or those who have done one already) with disability and/or chronic illness have their own coping strategies to manage workload and stress, I'm interested if you'd like to share what are some of yours? I'll follow this tweet with some of mine!

[The Early Pages @TheEarlyPages]

@chron_ac @BH_Francis has been sharing her story of doing a PhD with chronic migraine, and how daily swims in the cold sea has helped her regain control of her health. You can follow her story at @vitaminseafilm, and we recommend reading her inspiring blog post: https://t.co/1YR5Q4AtXO
