Over the moon to receive this certificate and honourable mention from @uclopenscience.bsky.social for 'Open Science & Scholarship' 😁

Thank you for the nomination @es-ucl.bsky.social!

We provide guidance on cleaning fossil occurrence data in preparation for palaeobiological analyses, covering project setup, data exploration and cleaning, and finalising and reporting work. To accompany the article, we've made available a vignette, with worked examples:

‘Uglies’ deserve data too! #LivingData2025

There is a Colombian IRN-BRU!?

And it begins! 😁 #LivingData2025

I had a great time at the @thepalass.bsky.social annual meeting last week and presenting @palaeoverse.bsky.social's rmacrostrat 📦. Big thanks to all the organisers (@emmadnn.bsky.social, @taphonomist.bsky.social, @rachelwarnock.bsky.social, @reefer.bsky.social, and team) for a fantastic meeting!

🚨NEW JOURNAL?!?🚨

Open Palaeontology is now live! - A Diamond #OpenAccess journal focused on providing a flexible, free, and accessible platform for publishing palaeontological research! 🦕🐚🦴

Want to know more?🔗 www.openpalaeo.org

We look forward to your submissions!

#Palaeontology #Palaeobiology

Very excited to be back at #RCUK2024 and looking forward to the great line up!

Finally, putting this package together was truly a collaborative effort and would not have been possible without the incredible efforts of Christopher Dean, @willgearty.bsky.social, and @bethanyjallen.bsky.social.

And as always, huge thanks to Miranta Kouvari for another wonderful package logo!

So, what can you do with rmacrostrat?
- Make a geologic outcrop map (rmacrostrat.palaeoverse.org/articles/geo...)
- Plot a stratigraphic column (rmacrostrat.palaeoverse.org/articles/str...)
- Summarise geological units (rmacrostrat.palaeoverse.org/articles/geo...)
- And much more…

🚨New paper!🚨

Want to use data from macrostrat.org, but struggle working with APIs?

Our (Christopher Dean, @willgearty.bsky.social, @bethanyjallen.bsky.social, & I) article describing the rmacrostrat R package 📦 is now published #OpenAccess in #Geosphere
