Recurrent humid phases in Arabia over the past 8 million years - Nature
A climatic record from desert speleothems shows that the central Arabian interior experienced recurrent humid intervals over the past 8 million years, which likely facilitated mammalian dispersals bet...

Paper alert, @nature.com. Our study reveals 8 million years of #GreenArabia. We document environmental variability - ranging over the entire course of human evolution. Arabia is a key bridge at the cross-roads of continents. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very happy to be working with Huw on this project! I can't wait to be on the field to study and date the Maltese landscapes and terraces.
(11/11) My co-investigators Prof. Andrea Zerboni (University of Milan) will study soil characteristics, micromorphology etc…and Dr Eric Andrieux (University of Durham) will conduct optically stimulated luminescence dating.
