Just published the first chapter of my PhD on remote fossil site detection using satellite images & #unsupervisedlearning in @GorongosaPark with my supervisors @paleobob @carvalhoprimate

It is #openaccess at peerj.com/articles/11573/

@primobevolab @oxford_anthro @PeerJLife 1/n
The paper starts by exploring the spatial and temporal gaps of the #primate & #hominid fossil record of Africa in the late #Miocene. @GorongosaPark in #Mozambique is shown to be a strategic location, with great potential to fill some major gaps in #paleoanthropology 2/n
We also discuss the difficulties of surveying for new paleontological localities, specially within modern forests/woodlands as in #Gorongosa, since dense vegetation cover reduces visibility (i.e. finding clues in topography and landscape). 3/n
