Welcome to PAGES

The PAGES (Past Global Changes) project is an international effort to coordinate and promote past global change research. The primary objective is to improve our understanding of past changes in the Earth system in order to improve projections of future climate and environment, and inform strategies for sustainability. ... more

PAGES, a registered association for scientific research and networking, is open and inclusive to all scientists interested in past global changes. Science within PAGES is conducted by working groups, which are open to all paleoscientists working on the topic. Get involved by contacting the working group leaders, signing up to mailing lists, and attending teleconferences and/or workshops.

PAGES is funded by the Swiss Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Sciences, and supported in-kind by the University of Bern, Switzerland. For administrative purposes, it is part of the Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research (OCCR). PAGES is a Global Research Project of Future Earth, a scientific partner of WCRP, and a partner of WDS-Paleo.

img fig landcover6k morrison apr 21A new paper resulting from an extensive process of consultation with researchers worldwide over many years has been published by PAGES' LandCover6k working group.

"Mapping past human land use using archaeological data: A new classification for global land use synthesis and data harmonization" by Kathleen Morrison et al. presents a simple, hierarchical classification of land-use systems designed to be used with archaeological and historical data at a global scale and a schema of codes that identify land-use practices common to a range of systems, both implemented in a geospatial database.

PAGES launches new Horizons

Details
Published: Tuesday, 13 April 2021 10:00

PAGEShorizons 2021 Cover 130421PAGES is proud to announce the launch of a new paleoscience magazine for teenagers and young adults.

Past Global Changes Horizons highlights science of the past, written in an easy to understand, visual format, for those interested in, and wanting to learn more about, environmental issues and global climate change.

The first issue was edited by Graciela Gil-Romera and Boris Vannière, and the editor-in-chief is PAGES' Science Officer Sarah Eggleston.

Graciela said Horizons was created due to a lack of relatable outreach and science communication resources for the younger generation.

"This is precisely the age group where more is needed to help shape their transition into decision-makers in adulthood," she said.

Following the PAGES 2k Network Town Hall meeting held on 25 February, the group's coordinators have created a new survey.

The aim of the meeting was to seek initial feedback from the community on future directions for the network, once Phase 3 comes to an end on 31 December 2021.

Building on the meeting's outcomes, the survey is for the wider community to identify priorities for the next 5-10 years.

The deadline for responses is 30 April 2021.
