Congratulations to my colleague at Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust Dr @hannahjsellers.bsky.social on the publication of the second paper from her PhD! Read the #OpenAccess paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

The second paper from my PhD has now been published ✨ This paper explores using a combination of fossil pollen and place-names to provide a broader record of past landscape change and the connections to anthropogenic influences in Leicestershire. Read the full article here: doi.org/10.1177/0959...

Exciting end to 2024 with the first paper from my PhD being published in the Anthropocene Review! We explore the stratigraphical signals of the Anthropocene near to the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Read here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Really enjoyed attending #BES2024 Annual Meeting last week and presenting at my last conference as a PhD student 🌳 Now to finish writing my thesis ✍️

So cool to hear about exploring historic woodland cover using palynology and traditional ecological knowledge - now obsessed with old woodland type names digitalcommons.usf.edu/jea/vol18/is... via @hannahjsellers.bsky.social #BES

Looking forward to speaking at the BES Annual Meeting this Thursday in Room 11C at 11am about using an interdisciplinary approach integrating palaeoecological and historical evidence to examine past woodland change 🌳 #BES2024
