Dr. Antoni Rosell i Melé was more than the head of ImpactantResearchGroup, he was a dedicated, considerate mentor and a dear friend to all of us who had the pleasure of working with him. He was a source of inspiration and is greatly missed.

Today, we are celebrating a meeting with all the PhD students of the PhD program in Environmental Science and Technology at ICTA-UAB Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona

Impactant's Dr. Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social, Dr. Maria Raja, and Nuria Penalva Arias presented their novel methods of biomarker analyses for biomass burning and pyrogenic carbon at the IMOG 2021 in mid-September! Check out their 3 abstracts here

New paper out by Dr. Nadia Tarifa-Mateo, Dr. Antoni Rosell-Mele, et al! Pottery use in the mining site of variscite Mines de Gavà (Barcelona, Spain) during the 4th millennium BC based on organic residue analysis doi.org/10.1016/j.jasr… ICTA-UAB #Prehistory Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona #Archaeology

Impactant's María Raja was interviewed about her most recent paper in which she & Antoni Rosell-Mele used #biomarkers to make a quantitative assessment of the #ocean 's primary productivity (marine #phytoplankton ). Listen via spotify, apple, or CienciaEs link below!

Dr. Maria Raja is now presenting « The potential use of sedimentary pyrogenic biomarkers to quantitatively reconstruct wildfires occurence and extension », with Antoni Rosell-Mele and myself among the co-authors

Check Maria Raja Sanchez, Pedro Rivas, Gorka Muñoa, Carles Moreu,Nuria Penalva, Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social, Joan Villanueva,Antoni Rosell-Mele's EGU poster 'The potential use of sedimentary pyrogenic biomarkers to quantitatively reconstruct wildfires occurrence and extension' ICTA-UAB

Check out Oriol Teruel, Antoni Rosell-Mele, and Nuria Penalva's EGU talk at 11:42 GMT+2 'Global patterns of oceanic dust deposition during Pliocene-Pleistocene transitions.' #PALADYN ICTA-UAB

Yesterday the SDG stopped in the Grand Canaries + now they are off to their final destination Vigo, to arrive Monday. The #Paladyn crew is excited to bring back samples + stories from their long journey crossing the hemispheres! #SAGA10W Oriol Teruel Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social Antoni Rosell-Mele

Today on the Sarmiento the other #SAGA scientists learned about #Paladyn 's projects through seminars from Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social on 'Dissolved Pyrogenic carbon in the water column' and Oriol Teruel on Dust: its interaction with climate and how it has changed over time. ICTA-UAB

The #Paladyn crew filters water column samples & in- transit surface samples for pyrogenic carbon (any organic molecule formed by incomplete combustion of wildfires) within dissolved & particulate matter, that's been transported and deposited by atmospheric circulation.

Good luck guys, have fun and enjoy the oceanographic campaign! See you in April, ImpactantResearchGroup team! 💪💪

Lots of smiles from the female scientists on the Sarmiento de Gamboa as they get ready to cross the Atlantic a few days into the cruise!

Después de un vuelo a Punta Arenas (Chile),dos semanas confinadas y otra más por la imposibilidad del BiO Sarmiento de Gamboa de cruzar el Drake,las científicas de la campaña #SAGA ya están en embarcadas para cruzar el Atlántico y llegar a Gran Canaria a mediados de Abril. ULPGC

The SAGA cruise spirits are high after 3 days of sailing with bad weather and 6 meter waves!

#Paladyn European Research Council (ERC) ICTA-UAB

The Sarmiento de Gamboa arrived yesterday evening in Punta Arenas! After a long 3 weeks wait, Antoni Rosell-Mele, Nina Davtian, PhD @ninadavtian.bsky.social, & Oriol Teruel of the #Paladyn project and the #SAGA10W Oceanographic campaign team boarded today at 6pm. Bon voyage and happy sampling! ICTA-UAB

Lipid analyses reveal new insights into pottery use in Early Neolithic settlements in the Barcelona plain 🪴🐄🐐 ImpactantG researchers Adrià Breu, Antoni Rosell-Mele, and colleagues report their findings in Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences doi.org/10.1007/s12520…

Congratulations to Dr. Maria Raja Sánchez and Dr. Antoni Rosell Melé on their new PNAS paper published in January 2021, 'Appraisal of sedimentary #alkenones for the quantitative reconstruction of #phytoplankton biomass'!
