If you have a palaeoecological dataset and are interested in reconstructing past climate variations, this course is meant for you. During this 3-day workshop, you will learn about the principles of the CREST method, a powerful approach that combines ecological modelling and uncertainty analysis to extract meaningful climate trends from your data, and how to use the dedicated crestr R package.

The workshop will generally run between 9 am to 4 pm Central European (Summer) Time. A detailed program will be shared with participants prior to the workshop.

Quantitative Palaeoclimate Reconstructions with crestr

As the creator of the CREST R package, I’m uniquely positioned to help you unlock its full potential. With my in-depth knowledge of how CREST works and its practical applications, I provide personalised guidance to ensure you get the best results for your climate reconstruction project. Whether you need help interpreting complex data, troubleshooting errors, optimising your approach, or preparing your data for smoother analysis, I am here to guide you every step of the way. during the workshop, I will assist you with:

  • Data Curation: Expert advice on preparing and organising data to work seamlessly with CREST’s functions and features.
  • Data Interpretation: Help with understanding and interpreting your results to extract valuable insights from your climate data.
  • Troubleshooting: Assistance with resolving any technical issues you may encounter while using CREST.
  • Optimisation: Guidance on fine-tuning CREST for better accuracy and efficiency in your climate reconstructions.

    The workshop was very informative and helpful, for quantitative data treatment in general, and for the use of CRESTR, more specifically. The instructor is excellent (thank you Manu !). Help and advice for running CRESTR and using the results after the workshop are much appreciated.

    I had the pleasure of participating in one of the first iterations of the CRESTR workshop. The workshop offered an excellent balance of theoretical background and practical, hands-on training. My students who joined the training also benefitted immensely. Manu’s teaching style fostered a welcoming environment that empowered early-career researchers to engage confidently with new analytical tools. Thanks to this workshop, both my students and I feel well-equipped to incorporate CREST into our palaeoenvironmental research.

    I would strongly encourage other palaeoscientists to take part in future CRESTR training opportunities.

    CRESTR is a very promising tool for paleoclimate reconstructions! The workshop was very informative on Probability Density Functions (theoretical background) and the CRESTR package per se so at the end, everyone was able to run CRESTR with their own data. Manuel Chevalier is an excellent instructor, very friendly, who adapts to everyone and provides help and advice on CRESTR after the workshop if you face any issue with the software! Thank you Manuel!

    This workshop is rich, dynamic, and highly educational, providing training in the probabilistic CREST/r approach using pollen data. Resources are abundant, and personal support is also available. The hybrid format, combining lectures and discussions, offers a great opportunity to share challenges and issues while bringing together the paleo community. CREST/r is a powerful tool and an important component in the development of multi-method approaches. Thank you, Manu 🙂
