We have a new BAP team member!

Ms. Linda-Helen Habermann is currently finalizing her BAP-related bachelor project supervised by Prof. Pavel Tarasov in the Palaeontology division of the Institute of Geological Sciences, at Freie Universität Berlin. Her thesis focuses on pollen analysis and pollen-based correlation of two sediment cores from Lake Ochaul in the Upper Lena microregion of Cis-Baikal, covering the past 13,000 years. Since early 2023, she has been employed as a Student Assistant in the BAP-affiliated research project “Lakes and climate of central Eurasia: Ostracod-based reconstructions of limnology and climate of the last 50,000 years in the Lake Baikal region” funded through the German Research Foundation Grant to Dr. Jana Gliwa at the FU Berlin.

Linda hopes to update her bio with her Master’s project in the next few months!

RESEARCH INTERESTS: Palaeoclimate reconstruction, Ostracods, Palaeoecology, Stable isotopes
