An #IceAge is a period of long-term reduction in Earth's temperature, resulting in the expansion of continental ice sheets and alpine glaciers. These periods are characterized by significant changes in climate, sea levels, and ecosystems.
Earth is currently in the ice age called #Quaternary #Glaciation.
Wonderful to see 11 ARC Discovery Projects awarded to Quaternary projects in Australia! This must be a record for recent years/rounds.
Sleuthing thanks to Prof Simon Haberle at the ANU via the aqualist.
@DrEvanGowan I had a similar thought when looking at the ages and the materials that were dated. Nonetheless, it's fun that there can still be such debate over a thousand-km difference in the position of the ice margin! I'll be interested to see the new data from Manitoba. #glaciers #geology #quaternary
The first paper for our paper club is this recent one from McKay et al., presenting a thorough investigation of the (supposed?) 4.2 ka event. I'd read it when it was published, but just went through again in more detail, and what a good paper. Robust stats (of course, from this group), and they do a really nice job of building the case. I hope the group enjoys it!
Australian quaternarists and micropalaeontologists - applications for the Leanne Armand Travel Award are now open. Details on the #AQUA website: https://aqua.org.au/sample-page/the-leanne-armand-travel-award/
