#PalaeOpen
Just coming to the end of my first week as a lecturer at @royalholloway.bsky.social - great times chatting to colleagues old and new. Next week it's off to Macedonia to host a workshop for the PalaeOpen COST Action, very exciting too

El core team de #PalaeOpen se reunió en la UAB (Barcelona) para definir la gobernanza y planificar un 2026 de ciencia abierta.
Objetivo: integrar la mejor evidencia paleoecológica para entender interacciones organismo-ambiente.
Próximamente: talleres, summer schools y reuniones científicas (1/2)

Most of our department joined ice-breaker of PalaeOpen 2025 meeting at the Botanical Garden of Charles University in Prague, including members of the organizing team and our new colleague Vojtěch Abraham (bottom right in the photo). A great evening with the international paleoscience community!

The launch of a new European Plant Macrofossil Database (EuPlaMaDa) on the #Neotoma platform, as one of the key outputs of the COST Action #PalaeOpen, promises a significant step forward for palaeoecological research in Europe🥳 We welcome new volunteers to help with plant macrofossil data upload🤝

Daten aus der Vergangenheit für den #Naturschutz von morgen: Die europäische Initiative #PalaeOpen sammelt Daten über vergangene Lebensgemeinschaften und -räume, um Kenntnisse für die #Naturschutzpolitik zu gewinnen. Auch unsere Uni beteiligt sich. Gefördert von der #COST, mehr: s.gwdg.de/JMOT5U

Just reflecting on a great week at the IAL-IPA joint meeting in Aix-les-Bains. Lots of PalaeOpen work through a poster, a talk and a full-day workshop as well. And a great social to round up proceedings!

What happens if you lock #paleofire researchers and fire #managers in a room for 3 days and have them discuss synergies? While no one was actually locked in, this recent workshop at @csicaragon.bsky.social highlighted why such #transdisciplinary exchanges matter: palaeopen.github.io/outreach/mee...
How can palaeofire research have the most beneficial impact for fire management policy and practice? – PalaeOpen
A PalaeOpen workshop brought researchers and practitioners together to identify how long-term fire records can better support fire management and policy.

Last week I went to a summer school organised by #PalaeOpen in Sofia🇧🇬: databases, quantitative #analysis, and lots of #networking. A very cool week! #research

Training initiatives such as the #PalaeOpen Training School play a key role in strengthening the skills and community needed to make palaeoenvironmental data more findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.

⛰️La investigadora del @csic.es Graciela Gil-Romera, que lidera el grupo de trabajo sobre transferencia científica dentro de PalaeOpen, coordinó estas jornadas, en las que se combinaron talleres con una salida al Pirineo, a través del proyecto LIFE MIDMACC liderado por Estela Nadal

🟩El fin es permitir análisis integrados a escala continental sobre cómo los #ecosistemas terrestres y acuáticos han respondido a cambios ambientales naturales y humanos a lo largo de milenios.

PalaeOpen aglutina representación de los 27 estados de la UE y cuenta con 272 participantes en la red.

This week I am participating in the #PalaeOpen Training School in Sofia, Bulgaria.

A great opportunity to learn new approaches, share experiences and connect with colleagues.

#NEOLANDSCAPE #MSCA @ec.europa.eu @geode-cnrs.bsky.social @cnrs.fr
Open Science is a core principle of NEOLANDSCAPE

The project integrates palaeoecological and archaeological data, combining new evidence with open resources such as the @neotomadb.bsky.social to reconstruct long-term human–environment interactions and Neolithic landscape transformation.

@csicaragon.bsky.social acogió la semana pasada un taller de la Acción COST PalaeOpen del IPE-CSIC en Zaragoza y el Pirineo, que reunió a investigadoras e investigadores europeos, gestores del territorio y responsables de políticas públicas para debatir el papel del fuego en los ecosistemas
