Organic Geochemistry Southampton

New paper in 'Cretaceous Research' by recent PhD graduate @PaleoLibby and Jessica Whiteside that uses a large database (>18,000 samples) to investigate organic carbon burial within the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway (WIS). sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🚨New paper 🚨 out now in Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment. We used three integrated 15N tracing experiments to follow fertiliser, grass and urine through a grazing system.

Happy New Year from EXACT! We have just released the latest edition of our newsletter featuring a spotlight on the our supporting facility @OrgGeochem_UOS, recent training delivered and a case study report on novel portable detector technology. Read more: sway.office.com/1oDDBHKtTov32c…

📢BOGS abstract deadline today 📢 Get yer BOGS abstracts in today by 11.59pm. We especially encourage submissions from organic geochemistry MSc & PhD students and postdocs! Register and submit abstracts here: organicgeochem.com/bogs-2022

Attention UK organic geochemists! - abstract deadline day for BOGS 2022 is Monday the 13th of June at 11.59pm! organicgeochem.com/bogs-2022 I am hearing there are still some big deals to be done...

Only one week left to submit an abstract for the British Organic Geochemical Society (BOGS) meeting at Southampton. Urea-ly must submit an abstract! organicgeochem.com/bogs-2022

Dedicated organic geochemistry time, a friendly & supportive group, and the ceremonial passing of the toilet brush.. what more could you want from a meeting?! Looking forward to meeting up with lots of old and new faces at @BOGS_2022 in Southampton. Only 3 weeks left to sign up!

Interested in how root exudation in a mature forest changes under elevated CO2? I'm presenting findings at #EGU22 from the @NERCscience FACE-Underground project on Friday at 9am in 3.16/17 @BIFoRUoB @EGU_BG @ogu_bristol

Registration and abstract submission for the British Organic Geochemical Society (BOGS) meeting (4-5th of July, 2022) is now live! Both can be accessed via our website (organicgeochem.com/bogs-2022). Abstract submission closes 13th June and registration closes 20th June! Please RT!

📢Icebreaker update📢 We have reserved some tables at London Road Brewhouse - a pub and microbrewery - for the BOGS icebreaker on the 3rd of July (6-8pm). The venue also serves pizza and nibbles. We are hopane you will join us... londonroadbrewhouse.com

🚨New co-author paper🚨using compound-speific 15N-stable isotope probing to quantify BNF in soils led by fomer @ogu_bristol student Mashita Chiewattanakul with Adam McAleer @DrHeatherBuss @UoBEarthScience Rob Griffiths @UK_CEH Richard Evershed @BristolChem tinyurl.com/bdh2wtkp

A fun new NERC project led by Bridget Wade at UCL is about to start to investigate the Oligocene climate between @ES_UCL, @GeogBristol, @OrgGeochem_UOS and @EarthSciStA. The project combines proxy scientists, palaeontologists and climate modellers.

New paper in @AnnualReviews ("Biomarker Approaches for Reconstructing Terrestrial Environmental Change") led by @climategordon and feat. @emzyholl from @OceanEarthUoS. Link here: annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.114…
