Dr. Or M. BialikI really want a good (and easy-to-implement) paleo-salinity proxy, but it's been rather elusive through the years. You'd think elemental ratios would hold the key, but it still looks like you'd be getting only ballpark from them.

Mantle convection linked to seaway closure that transformed Earth's oceanographic circulation patterns
Continental drift is a concept familiar to many, referencing the movement of Earth's continents due to shifting tectonic plates over millions of years, splitting one globe-spanning supercontinent into the configuration we see today. Alongside this there have been smaller land mass movements that have opened seaways, affecting ocean circulation patterns and climate.

Dr Micha CampbellIf you are interested in the chemical tracers of wildfires, and how those might vary with burn severity, check out our new #preprint https://www.authorea.com/doi/full/10.22541/au.170689252.26414470/v1
We leached wildfire ashes and soils from karst areas, so we can better understand the speleothem palaeofire proxy signal. Another team effort, with co-authors from #UNSW (👋 @Andbaker) #ANSTO, #UWA, and #GNSScience
