Sedimentary Fingerprints of Extreme Precipitation during the PETM in the Eastern Tethys
10/06/2026 4:00 pm (London)
The PETM (~56 Ma) likely intensified precipitation extremes, but direct evidence has been scarce. A centimeter-scale, multi-proxy record from an eastern Tethys platform now distinguishes storms from runoff and shows repeated flooding pulses – field evidence for stronger rainfall under greenhouse warming.

Reproducibility in Cyclostratigraphy: a perspective
09/12/2026 4:00 pm (London)
Cyclostratigraphy is an important tool for understanding astronomical climate forcing and reading geological time in sedimentary sequences, provided that an imprint of insolation variations caused by Earth’s orbital eccentricity, obliquity and/or precession is preserved (Milankovitch forcing). This presentation will focus on common research practices in cyclostratigraphy, related potential challenges and opportunities, and recent community initiatives to enhance the reproducibility of cyclostratigraphic analyses.
