Delighted that our paper led by Deborah Priß "The social behind the physical" on connectivity of Bronze and Iron Age societies is now out in Journal of Archaeological Science. It's available Open Access at authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...
Another paper out from the I-CONN network. Well done Deborah
New paper out 🥳
In "#Urban #resilience in Ancient #Mesopotamia: insights into the socioeconomic system of the Bronze and Iron Age Khabur Valley", we are mapping network metrics of urban dynamics onto #Holling's adaptive cycle.

🌱 Fully Funded PhD Opportunity @ University of Exeter! 🌱
Study how NEOM’s regreening is shaping productivity in arid landscapes.
Join TESS Lab using Earth Observation, ML, and field data to understand what effective regreening looks like.
We're advertising an @iapetusdtp.bsky.social PhD position on modelling ecosystem resilience/vegetation patterning with @ecogeo.bsky.social, Denis Patterson, Roy Sanderson, and John Wainright! Keen to chat with anyone trained in geography/maths/ecology/physics etc.
