About Rieneke Weij
I’m a palaeoclimatologist and geochronologist. My research involves U-Th and U-Pb dating of secondary carbonates (speleothems, travertines, tufas). I’m specialized in understanding past variability in the hydroclimate in the Southern Hemisphere. I currently work on speleothems from the Cradle of Humankind in South Africa and from various sites in southern Australia including the Naracoorte Caves.
