Excited to share that a paper I started working on in 🌟2016🌟 is now published, more than a year after I first submitted it! Our dataset is publicly available (of course) if you're interested in mid-Holocene paleo precipitation! https://t.co/VFkJYSxG8W

This flowstone from Bear Cave in Yukon Territory is especially cool--the top layer (where a chip has been removed) dates to 419,000 yrs ago, and appears to reflect the most recent period of permafrost thaw at the Arctic Circle in NW Canada https://t.co/LE6L3C7jaN

We used cave deposits to uncover the history of Canadian permafrost, finding that thaw was much more common prior 400,000 yrs ago. Like @Vakstwit's results from Siberia, looks like a shift in NH permafrost stability after MIS11. Why? Love a good mystery.

ICYM March's @CafeSciBoston, it's available online! In this talk, @earth2christine and @gserratomarks describe their search for ancient stalagmites, relict shorelines, and fossilized algae that serve as natural archives of Earth's changing climate.

Our new paper is out now in Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology (yes they let in stalagmites now). Check it out for a great story on tropical rainfall dynamics at the edges of the monsoon during the deglaciation. https://t.co/HsIgdS1m0s @paleocliMIT

New record shows the last 240,000 yrs of Saharan dust variations track summer insolation, with much less influence from glacial-interglacial changes than previously thought. Great work, @chachaussette!

These first-year undergraduates have been working really hard this term in consultation with researchers, students and cultural experts on the Navajo Nation. Excited to see their final project come together for the presentation tomorrow night!

Big lakes in the SW US during the last deglaciation linked to tropical Pacific changes in our new @ScienceAdvances paper--pointing out importance of better representation of tropical Pacific in models. Thx to @Dan_E_Ibarra for help!

We use obs, models to explore how trade winds and Hadley circ respond when the rain belt shifts - turns out trades may stabilize the rain belt against large shifts. But more trade wind obs needed!

6 days of sampling beautiful mud @laccore. Can't wait to see what Searles lake seds tell us about last interglacial climate in southern CA.
