The first paper for our paper club is this recent one from McKay et al., presenting a thorough investigation of the (supposed?) 4.2 ka event. I'd read it when it was published, but just went through again in more detail, and what a good paper. Robust stats (of course, from this group), and they do a really nice job of building the case. I hope the group enjoys it!

If you are suffering some #INQUAROMA2023 FOMO, the good news is the plenaries are being live-streamed. Very enjoyable presentation from Prof. Hai Cheng on speleothem chronologies and quaternary climate change.
