Welcome!
Given your use of hashtags, you seem to be well set up, but just in case you seek more info how things work here, I recommend the unofficial Fediverse guide https://fedi.tips .
They also run the account @ FediTips @ social.growyourown.services .
Re: your DIY: There's sth called # MakersHour where people chat about their makes based on questions that change weekly. If you're into such exchanges, here's the post for today https://toot.community/@MakersHour@cupoftea.social/115932504627371536
Enjoy!
@proscience Awesome I will follow #MakersHour and the tips. Thanks for the help and welcome.

@wanderingprofessor does paleoclimatology mean diatom analysis from ice and mud cores and all that? I was skint so couldn’t carry on but would have liked to do my masters in that stuff way back when.

#introduction I'm new to the #fediverse brought here from the hard fork podcast. Only been here a day and I'm loving it. I'm a #professor of #geography my research interests include #climate and #weather. My passion is teaching students and advising graduate student theses. If you need any help or advice writing or publishing your thesis reach out. My biggest hobby is adventure #motorcycling but more recently I've had my hands full with our two kids so I do a lot of #diy and #baking
@wanderingprofessor welcome to the Fediverse

@JimmyB You got it! Those are some proxy records we can use as stand-ins for climate records. I use tree-rings to look back on past droughts going back 2,000+ yrs. Ice cores go back much further 800,000 to 1 million+ yrs. Sediment goes back 10,000 to 100,000+ yrs but the temporal resolution of ice and sediment is not annual. The annual or even subannual (trees actually put on two types of rings a year) is why I like dendrochronology so much. I mostly teach now and try to publish with students
