Definitely a group. Mainly palaeo. Not always Yorkshire.
The Yorkshire Palaeo Group is an informal network of researchers interested in palaeoecology and palaeoenvironmental change based in Universities across northern England. Anyone interested in past environments is welcome to attend and there is no registration fee. We meet twice a year, sometimes in person and sometimes virtually.
We will meet next in Autumn 2026, venue yet to be decided
Our next meeting will be on a Wednesday afternoon in October or November 2026 - venue not yet determined.
If you'd like to offer to host this meeting (or future sessions) as a hybrid or virtual event please email Jane Bunting (m.j.bunting@hull.ac.uk).
Joining the jiscmail (below) is the best way to stay informed, although we will also share all information via other palaeo-relevant mailing lists. In case of any problems with the list, or any questions etc., please email m.j.bunting@hull.ac.uk
You don’t have to be from / based in or talking about sites in Yorkshire!
