Anthropocene Sediment Network

Empowering community-driven solutions on a changing planet

By “sediment,” we refer to anything that can move on Earth, from sand on a beach to the device you are reading this on. Our network encourages collaboration and dialogue, promoting advances in research across disciplines to tackle the unique dynamics of our changing planet.

Calls for Collaboration

The Anthropocene Sediment Network exists to explore the broad world of sediment in an open, collaborative, and cross-disciplinary exchange. Below we list open opportunities to get involved. If you are seeking support for a multi-disciplinary project, feel free to e-mail c.russell@lboro.ac.uk to add something to the list below, and for broader enquiries.

Palynologist wanted!

Seeking a palynologist in the Northeastern United States to analyse pollen from dated lake cores at the Susquehanna River headwaters (upstate New York) as part of a multiproxy study on environmental change and cultural transitions. Biomarker work is covered; we need pollen expertise to co-develop interpretations and co-author publications.
