Conferences:

• David Naafs and Marcus Badger will be attending the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in San Francisco this year. David will conveying a session entitled "North Atlantic Climate During the Pliocene and Quaternary"

Other news:

• Dr. Kyle Taylor, who completed a PhD and post-doc in the OGU, is moving to IsoPrime in December!
• Congratulations to Dr. Katie Lim who passed her viva during October. Katie is now working for the Royal Society of Chemistry in Cambridge.
• Dr. Marcus Badger is currently participating on the TROPICS cruise, led by Dr. Laura Robinson of the Earth Science department. The cruise aims to better understand recent climate change in the equatorial Atlantic.
