Channel: European Geosciences Union
Date: 2023-05-04

Archaeological studies piece together our relatively recent past. This press conference will explore how weather forecasting worked amidst complex sea navigation during the Middle Ages, when an early Micronesian society built the “Venice of the Pacific" at UNESCO World Heritage site Nan Madol, and what drove the divergent paths of two Roman settlements in Central Austria.

Participants:

- Chuan-Chou (River) Shen, High-Precision Mass Spectrometry and Environment Change Laboratory (HISPEC), National Taiwan University, Taiwan

- Diana Hatzenbühler, University of Vienna, Department of Geology, Vienna, Austria

Press Conference held Thursday, 27 April, 11:30 CEST in Vienna, Austria, moderated by EGU's Media and Communications Officer, Gillian D'Souza. For more information about our Press Conferences or to make contact with the speakers, please email media@egu.eu.
