Thank you so much to @water.leeds.ac.uk for choosing my research to be highlighted in their June Spotlight!
Earlier this year, water@leeds awarded me their Spring Award to continue my work on the Zinal glacier!

Thrilled to have been awarded Postgraduate Researcher of the Year in the University of Leeds Partnership Awards
Being a rep for PGRs across all levels of the university has been one of the most rewarding experiences in my PhD journey so far

Half way through EGU and loving it so far!
If you want to talk about Late Pliocene climate, paleo extremes or paleoweather come and see me at my poster 'North Atlantic variability in a warmer world: what can the Pliocene tell us?' at spot X5.102 today between 16:15 and 18:00 🌦️

The Late Pliocene jet stream: Changes and drivers of the mean state and variability
Abstract. Studies of the Late Pliocene have frequently been used as a means to improve our understanding of the climate system in a warmer state. Large scale features of Late Pliocene climate, such as...

And away I go (again). This time I'm off to the Urbino Summer School in Paleoclimateology.
This time I'm travelling by Train. First train Leeds to London (and it's already delayed).

I have arrived in Bern for a conference! Unfortunately my suitcase wasn't so lucky and is still at Heathrow airport

It was great to share my research this morning at EGU. It was very exciting to see others also looking towards variability and extremes in a palaeoclimate context ⛅
