It was a fantastic chance not only to share my research but also to connect with fellow palaeontologists and geochemists interested into palaeoenvironmental reconstructions. Inspiring to see the exciting directions our field is heading! (2/3)

Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to present some preliminary findings on the climatic conditions of the Sydney Basin, Australia, during the Early Triassic. (1/3)

In my talk, I'll explore the drivers behind said these ecological changes and highlight our multi-proxy approach—combining fossil evidence, elemental geochemistry, and clay mineralogy—to reconstruct past environments. (3/4)
I recently published a high-resolution timeline of floral change, calibrated to the global chronostratigraphy. Our group (Tracy Frank, Christopher Fielding, Michael Hren, Chris Mays) revealed that the most dramatic shifts were driven by two distinct climatic events during the Early Triassic. (2/4)

Example of pollen collected from rocks in the Early Triassic Sydney Basin.
Major floral communities of the Sydney Basin in the Early Triassic.
Clay minerology gathered with HyLogger and rendered with TSG 8.
Next week at EGU25, I'll be presenting new findings from my ongoing PhD research on polar plant communities in the aftermath of Earth's largest mass extinction ~250 million years ago.🌡️💀 (1/4)

I have just published the first paper of my PhD. If you are keen about ancient climates and how plants fared extreme events, please read about it in our piece for @theconversation.com!
theconversation.com/plants-strug...
Article: doi.org/10.1130/B380...
The full findings will be available (very) soon for you to take a look at, so stay tuned!
You can find the poster here dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.... (3/3)
In my case, geochemistry allowed us (Chris Mays, Tracy D. Frank, Christopher Fielding, Michael Hren) to precisely date plant community changes across time following the end-Permian mass extinction ~252 million years ago. (2/3)

A week ago I had the chance to present one facet of the fractal that are Earth Sciences at the 10th anniversary of iCRAG. I was happy to share (on stage and in poster format) the power that interdisciplinary has in complementing findings. 🔬🪨 (1/3)
