[Bolincentret-at-su.se] Workshop on African Paleoclimate Dec 2nd-4th

[Malin Kylander]

Dear Bolin Scientists,

As announced previously, we will be holding a workshop on African Paleoclimate Dec 2 to 4th, 2014. 

All are welcome to attend and if you would like to join us please mail me no later than November 14th.

This workshop will gather those of us from the Bolin Centre working on both proxy data and modeling studies from the African continent with the goal of finding some common ground and ultimately, better defining ourselves as a group. We have invited researchers that we see as important (future) collaborators in a first step towards building a stronger network.

Our invited guests and several in-house researchers will be presenting their work and there will be time during the workshop for discussion of key questions and future plans.  

A detailed schedule is in the works and will be posted on the Bolin webpage when ready.   

Invited guests include:

Jens Zinke (UWA Oceans Institute and University of Western Australia)
Stefan Grab (School of Geography, Archaeology and Environmental Studies, University of the Witwatersrand)
Jemma Finch (School of Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal)
Tim Mighall (School of Geosciences, University of Aberdeen)
Lindsey Gillson (Plant Conservation Unit and Botany Department, University of Cape Town)
Anneli Ekblom (Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Uppsala University)
David Mburu (Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology)
Babatunde Abidun (Department of Environmental & Geographical Science, University of Cape Town)
Asfawossen Asrat (School of Earth Sciences, Addis Ababa University)


Looking forward to seeing as many of you there!

Malin
