25,000 years ago teenagers went through puberty just like today’s kids April Nowell interviewed on CBCQuirks #anthropologywww.cbc.ca/listen/live-...
community archaeology in the Salish Sea - via colleagues over at SFU hakaimagazine.com/features/nei...
On the Pacific Northwest coast—and around the world—community archaeology is helping people reconcile with each other and their history.

great new publication from April Nowell and colleagues in the Journal of Human Evolution about Upper Paleolithic puberty and teenagers in Europe www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Childhood and adolescence are two life-history stages that are either unique to humans, or significantly expanded in the human life course relative to…
is PaleoAnth obsessed with Human origins? yes, but a new book questions its utility while "ignoring a present that is substantially different from the past... [& in so doing] misrepresents what the field is & has become" argues @anthrofuentes.bsky.socialwww.nature.com/articles/s41...
place based research matters: "any scientist doing research “that may impact the resources or interests of a federally recognized American Indian or Alaska Native Tribal Nation” must obtain “prior written approval” from that nation before NSF will make an award" www.science.org/content/arti...
Many see the change as long overdue but expect new burdens on researchers and tribes
the crust of the earth (sitting on the viscous magma/mantle) bounces back up when the weight of ice is lifted - leading to wild swings in localized sea level - but reducing emissions is even more influential
New modelling that adds in post-glacial rebound indicates these effects are not really going to make much difference in the coming decades, but curtailing our emissions - or not - could be the difference between around 1-2 metres of sea-level rise, and up to 6 metres, by 2500.
Solid Earth uplift reduces Antarctica’s contribution to sea-level rise under low warming but amplifies it under high warming.
