Might as well do an #introduction post as it has been a while...

Hello there Fediverse! I am an environmental archaeologist interested in how past communities interacted with and shaped their environments (and vice versa). Just finished my #PhD (Physical #Geography at #Plymouth) focusing on the #HumberheadLevels. For my thesis, I combined #pollen analysis, #GIS, and #geoarchaeology to understand relationships between people and #wetland #landscapes. I recently passed my viva, so I am currently looking for work.

My published work thus far includes contributions on land cover reconstruction in complex wetland systems and chapters on #anarchist approaches to #archaeology and #heritage practice. I have a few more pieces in the works, and little time to do them all.

As far as research goes, I have been mostly interested in challenging the 'pristine #nature vs human impact' binary, the politics of how we interpret past landscapes, and unpicking what we actually mean when we talk about 'natural' environments and the messy reality of human-environment coevolution.

Reviving this account to catch up with your lovely faces and to see what's happening in #archaeology #paleoecology #gis #wetlands #politicalecology and related fields. 💗

#introductions #postdoc

I've passed my #viva (yay!) and can now share two recent publications:

First, our article on reconstructing prehistoric land cover in the Humberhead Levels is now out in Vegetation History and #Archaeobotany.

We applied the Multiple Scenario Approach to produce spatially-informed quantitative reconstructions across four #prehistoric periods, working through the complexities of #wetland-rich 'blue-green' #landscapes where #freshwater and #marine systems intersect.

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00334-026-01087-6

Second, I contributed to the #archaeology chapter in The Palgrave Handbook of #Anarchism (March 2026), which connects #anarchist theory and #history to contemporary political developments.

https://link.springer.com/book/9783031980299

More publications on the way as well and on to what comes next, whatever that might be (pls send me your #postdoc postings 🙏 😅 ).

Polish archaeologists find that Żagań-Lutnia5 is an Iron Age stronghold

Archaeologists using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and magnetic methods have uncovered crucial details about Żagań-Lutnia5, an archaeological site in southwestern Poland. The study reveals that the monument served as a defensive settlement during the Iron Age...

As an "archive", the #forest 🌳 🌲 still contains a lot of previously untapped information about its evolution through history. However, this information is important when considering the future of the forest. At an interdisciplinary conference, experts from #archaeology, #archaeobotany, #geoarchaeology, #historical sciences and #ecology discussed ways in which this archive can be better decoded.

Sneak peek of an interdisciplinary project I'm working on with some new colleagues at UTRGV. Experimenting with photogrammetry and 3D modeling to visualize the stratigraphy of a clay dune (aka loma) as revealed by a roadcut near Port Isabel, Texas. You can view it in #3D, #VR or #AR by visiting https://skfb.ly/oBJt9

So, I teach at a small liberal arts college (Denison University) where some people are surprised to discover that we do #science. Like, that faculty do research. We do!

I study crystals erupted by #volcanoes to map what is happening inside the volcano before/during/after it erupts.

I've had many students work with me on this research and other projects that have ranged from #tectonics to #geoarchaeology. That's the fun of the liberal arts.

#Introduction

Hello everyone!

I am a #PhD candidate in #PhysicalGeography at the University of #Plymouth (UK)!

I am interested in how people have interacted with #landscapes through deep time and our effect on the #environment. #geoarchaeology, #gis, and #palaeoecology are my tools of the trade.

I used to work in #geomatics and also do some consulting part-time.

Outside of work, I like #gardening, #3DPrinting and hanging out with my animals. :)
