Tried the #Kayakomat for the first time after discovering there are several in the area, including on the Schlei. A wet afternoon, but the booking was easy, good support, all you need provided and a lot of fun! Check them out! #kayak #point65

Very excited to have published with Hiro Sato & Douglas Kelley in the June-July issue of "Archäologie in Deutschland" magazine. We write about how our collaboration of climate modellers & palaeoecologists evolved and culminated in our model of the #Amazon ecosystem during the last #IceAge.🏺🦣

Poster collected and it looks great! All ready for the #HugoObermaier meeting next week at @icarehb.bsky.social 🇵🇹. I am excited to present the first biomarker record at a hominin fossil site in #SouthAfrica 🇿🇦, great collaborative work with the @people-erc-stg.bsky.social team.

A reminder that the deadline is coming up next week for presentations in our session at the SAfA conference 2025! #Kalahari #Namib #Karoo #desert 🦣🏺 If you can't make it in person, there is the option to submit an abstract for online presentation, as the conference is hybrid.
