I am a paleomagnetist working in the fields of Geochronology, Quaternary climates, and Archaeological Sciences. I am currently a McKenzie Fellow in the School of Earth Sciences. Prior to this I was a research fellow in Archaeomagnetism at La Trobe University, and I hold a PhD in Oceanography from the University of Quebec (Canada). I am interested in the behavior of the Earth magnetic field through time to develop paleomagnetic dating.…More Details

I am a paleomagnetist working in the fields of Geochronology, Quaternary climates, and Archaeological Sciences. I am currently a McKenzie Fellow in the School of Earth Sciences. Prior to this I was a research fellow in Archaeomagnetism at La Trobe University, and I hold a PhD in Oceanography from the University of Quebec (Canada). I am interested in the behavior of the Earth magnetic field through time to develop paleomagnetic dating. My recent work focuses on the Southern Hemisphere and the Australasia region using a range of archives (marine and lake sediments, archaeological and historical artefacts, speleothems, and volcanic rocks). I am also passionate about promoting magnetism for Australian paleoclimate and archaeology. I use the magnetic properties of geological archives and artefacts as a versatile tool for multi-disciplinary investigations of past climates, ancient technologies, site occupation, and sourcing.

Professor Rachel Popelka-Filcoff FRACI is the Rock Art Australia Minderoo Chair in Archaeological Science in the School of Geography, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Melbourne, where she leads archaeological science initiatives. Her research develops novel multidisciplinary approaches to analyse cultural materials, artifacts and landscapes. These integrated methods offer an extraordinary view into past cultures, understanding of current society, and insight into our future. Her group explores provenience, sourcing and exchange of geological materials and artefacts through analysis and statistical approaches, and the development of high-resolution, non-invasive characterisation of cultural heritage materials. Rachel is on the editorial board of Journal of Archaeological Science and is a Fellow of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute.
