[Aqualist] Correction: The next set of Palaeo Advancements on the East Coast (PAEC) seminars at the University of New South Wales

[Chris Turney]

Apologies for any cross-posting and the dreadful mistake on the previous
email. The seminars will be held at UNSW, NOT University of Sydney. More
haste, less speed!


The next double act for the *Palaeo Advancements on the East Coast* seminar
series has been scheduled for the 16 February at the University of New
South Wales. This is the third of our meetings which have been set up to
share the latest in palaeo research across the wider Sydney region.


The next seminars will be hosted by Chris Turney at the School of
Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of New South
Wales. A flyer is attached but a summary is given below. Feel free to
forward on to anyone who might be interested.

*Date: Thursday, 16 February 2017*

*Time: Commencing 3 pm *

*Venue: Central Lecture Block 2 (CLB2, Building E19), University of New
South Wales (Kensington Campus)*


*Seminar 1 by Associate Professor Scott Mooney (UNSW):* Palaeo-perspectives
on fire regimes in two regions of south-eastern Australia

*Seminar 2 by Dr Ed Cook (Director, Tree-Ring Laboratory, Lamont-Doherty
Earth Observatory, Columbia University): *The role of tree ring drought
atlases in climate change research: State of the art and future developments


This is a completely open event and we’d welcome anyone to attend. The
meetings are completely informal with plenty of tea and coffee. At the end
of the talks we’ll take a trip down to The White House (next to the Fig
Tree Theatre on the Kensington Campus; near Gate 4) and have drinks and a
cheap eat.


With many of us in the throes of Discovery grant writing, this should be a
great afternoon for taking a well earned break, catching up with friends
and sharing some ideas!


Hope to see you there.


All the very best,


Chris Turney (UNSW)

Dan Penny (Sydney)

Tim Cohen (UoW)

Sylvia Frisia (Newcastle)

Damian Gore (Macquarie)

Monika Markowska and Pauline Treble (ANSTO)

Greg Skilbeck (UTS)
