If you are interested in the chemical tracers of wildfires, and how those might vary with burn severity, check out our new #preprint https://www.authorea.com/doi/full/10.22541/au.170689252.26414470/v1

We leached wildfire ashes and soils from karst areas, so we can better understand the speleothem palaeofire proxy signal. Another team effort, with co-authors from #UNSW (👋 @Andbaker) #ANSTO, #UWA, and #GNSScience

Are you at #AGU23 and interested in #wildfires in one of the coldest regions on Earth? 🔥 ❄️
Come by our iPoster presentation in eLightning session PP44A, Thursday at 4 pm!
Alternatively, you can check out our research from #Siberia at one of the iPoster screens or online in the gallery any time you'd like:

Sharing this open #paleofire #PhD position at the University of Aberdeen, UK 🔥
Apply Raman spectroscopy to #peatland cores and experimentally burned samples to reconstruct fire intensity changes throughout the past millennia- sounds like a great project!

A fun game for #CharcoalTuesday: when reading charcoal diagrams, look for hidden cats

In a #paleofire review of studies in #Russia the authors describe a disorderly state of data in the Global Paleofire #Database. They advocate for a "Russian analogue of the database on paleofires". Personally, I like unifying instead of separating when it comes to databases. Also, due to the war and all it's consequences, such a database may not even be accessible from outside Russia. Any thoughts on this?
