Stone tool discovery suggests very first humans were inventors https://t.co/jLOcRvCGRb

[Ashley Hammond @ashleyshammond]

This was a tough field location-- it took a lot out of us-- but it was worth it! We documented 300k years of continuous, stable tool tradition at this site in the Turkana Basin of northern Kenya.

It is Open Access, so download the paper itself at Nature Communications!

O Brasil está reivindicando junto à ONU a posse de uma ilha submersa, chamada Elevação Rio Grande, localizada a mais de 1,2 mil km da costa do RS. Com uma extensão de 500 mil km² e profundidade de 5 mil metros, a formação geológica tem o tamanho da Espanha e é considerada estratégica devido ao seu potencial mineral.

I am happy to share that the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (#ANRF) has awarded me the Prime Minister Early Career Research Grant. The project will help advance research on biogenic nanomagnetic particles in lakes.
Grateful for the trust of my peers and support of ANRF.

In 2018 seafloor studies were carried out in the Rio Grande Rise... what they found were the the remains of a LOST tropical island! 🏝️

One of the experts present, Prof. Bramley Murton, reveals all on #NOCIntoTheBlue.

I came across this beautifully explained podcast series on the Indian Summer Monsoon and Past Civilisation by Prof. Raghu Murtugudde, IIT Bombay. Here is one full podcast video based on our research work published three years ago.

South Atlantic Rio Grande Rise during the Eocene Epoch was sub-aerial exposed. At least that's what red clays suggest:
"...red clay is a product of extreme chemical weathering of the lava flows"
Maybe these paleoislands helped S. America-Afriaca dispersal?
