Comparing temperature anomalies in summer 1976 and summer 2024

Comparing temperature anomalies in summer 1976 and summer 2024

As we seem to, yet again, be talking about the hot UK summer of 1976, a reminder that the UK is not the world.

Yes, it was hot that summer over our small region, but the bigger picture tells a different story.

And, we've had hotter UK summers since.

Earlier this year I was asked to be involved in an interview about my research, lakes sediments, and climate change in general. A little different to my every day work but it was definitely fun doing this... you can watch the video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=39i-...

New paper (led by Emily Hollingsworth) in P&P assessing spatial and temporal patterns in petrogenic organic carbon mobilization during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum. It's also Emily's first first-author paper - wooo! #proudsupervisor
