I recently completed my PhD pre-confirmation seminar where I proposed my research project in palaeoecology. I’m hoping to analyse changes in vegetation pre & post-British Invasion on Butchulla Country at K’gari, and understand whether these changes have influenced fire regimes!

Was privileged to recently attend my first international conference, @InquaRoma2023. A fruitful opportunity, having met so many incredible researchers and learning of their projects. Many thanks to the organisers, and @Melb_Palaeo for so generously supporting this opportunity.

The @SciMelb School of Geography Earth and Atmospheric Sciences crew at the @AusQuaternary conference. For most, our first in person conference since 🦠😷! Great to catch up with old colleagues and new. Loved every minute of it! ❀️ Thanks @zuorui_liu for the πŸ“·! #AQUA22 – at Adelaide, South Australia

Great first day at #AQUA2022 @AusQuaternary with lots of amazing talks and posters. Shout out to @magee_harriet @PalaeoPeeks for presenting their research on changes in fire regimes and fuel loads since the removal of Aboriginal people across SE Australia @pf_fire – at Adelaide, South Australia

Patrick @PalaeoPeeks & Louisa @Palaeo_Sheridan presented their honours research today πŸ‘. Incredible results of high-resolution palaeoecological records reflective of their hard work and dedication. Well done! πŸŽ‰. – at Melbourne, Victoria

What can lake sediments, pollen, trees and charcoal tell us about paleoclimate and past fire events? @theotheroad, @magee_harriet, @pollenpal and @PalaeoPeeks gave the @SciMelb work experience students a whistle-stop tour of the methods they use to reconstruct past environments!
