It may be a small start, but none-the-less my birch babies are starting to grow here in the palaeolab at Leeds. With their first true leaves now emerging its time to take off the plastic wrap they have been under to germinate, and make sure they are soaking up the right light conditions for our study. Good luck little ones!

Later on in the project, we will be looking for volunteers to help count features of the images on the citizen science platform Zooniverse. Watch this space if you are interested in being part of the team to find a proxy for cloud in deep time - and help develop and test tools for other scientists along the way.

ProjectClouds cause the greatest uncertainty in climate models, but we currently have no way of testing cloud model performance in a climate with higher CO2 than the historical records. Palaeontology gives us access to such a past, but currently, we don't have a method to reconstruct cloud in deep time. Archives
