Jordi Revelles, PhD 2017, is a Post-doctoral researcher (JdC) in IPHES. My research is focused on the study of human-environment interaction in the frame of first farming societies and vegetation history and climate change during the Early and Middle Holocene in Western Mediterranean. For accomplishing this goal I have been trained in archaeobotany, specifically in palynology, conducting pollen and non-pollen palynomorphs analyses in several natural deposits and archaeological sites, as well as the study of sedimentary charcoal in lacustrine and peat deposits.
The interdisciplinary nature of archaeoecology (application of palaeoecological sciences in archaeology) allowed me establishing a wide network of collaboration with different fields of research (geoarcheology, botany, mycology, limnology, ecology). My collaboration in international teams enable my participation in different palaeoecological and geoarchaeological projects providing outstanding data about human impact and climate change over the Mediterranean basin during the Late Glacial and Holocene.
