(Catch up) @ImWaajen presented a fantastic record through the Brown Bank Formation, which records the MIS5-4 transition in the North Sea #QRA24

Then former @GeographyUOM member @amymcg gave a wonderful presentation on ‘throwing all’ the geochronological techniques at marine cores from RISeR, where there is a mystery of some missing sediment… #QRA24
