#chemicalfossil — Public Fediverse posts

@vicgrinberg a number of years ago, I used this photograph in a presentation I gave at a conference in Krakow. I was discussing the mixture of hydrocarbons in the unresolved complex mixture often seen in petroleum and environmental samples (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unresolved_complex_mixture). It caused a bit of amusement...

#OrganicGeochemistry #ChemicalFossil

And the final session of #BOGS2024 completes with two presentations

All the best to those attending #BOGS2023... I'm sure the socializing will be great and the #OrganicGeochemistry even better. Sorry that I can't join you in Durham but maybe next year for #BOGS2024, wherever it's decided to hold it. Not sure if there are many colleagues here but looking to build a community if you are.
