Absolute time scales and isotope studies for investigating events in Earth and human history

Objective

The main goal of the ATIS project is the transfer of knowledge which will result in increasing the research potential of our GADAM Centre and expertise in applying and interpreting results in the fields of radiocarbon and luminescence dating, isotopic studies by means of mass spectrometry and gamma and alpha spectrometry; techniques that find direct application in the fields of climate reconstructions, dating and characterising climatic events in Earth history, assessing human impact on the environment - fields of our laboratory's intensive activities for many years.

The goals will be realised by means of visits of our experienced and more experienced researchers in leading laboratories in the listed fields in the European Community, as well as by accepting researchers in our Centre. The stays of our scientists in the chosen institutions will enable us to start or continue long-term collaboration; our scientists will have the chance to keep their knowledge at the state-of-art level and acquire new skills; through interaction with scientists in partner institutions new ideas and research directions are expected to spring up. Within the ATIS stipends our scientists will carry out research in partner laboratories supplementing the European Quaternary climate reconstructions. It is expected that a considerable number of joined publications will result from the project.

On the other hand, researchers from abroad staying in our laboratory through their daily involvement in our laboratory's activities, partaking in our seminars, taking active role in our internet-based post-diploma course, and assisting supervising diploma and PhD students will be able to transfer their experience and have a direct positive impact on our Centre's activities. In ATIS, we hope to be able to apply our experience in international collaboration and project coordination gained within the GADAM Centre of Excellence project.
