What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on skills to analyse past environments using field and lab data. You'll interpret sediments, terraces, fossils, pollen, charcoal, and artefacts, while mastering dating techniques to construct accurate chronologies. Practical exercises cover sampling methods, stratigraphic logging, and synthesising data for reliable paleoenvironmental reports.
