This work is supported by a UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) PhD studentship (NE/F00799X/1) The chronological challenge of cross-scale analysis within coupled socio-ecological systems can be met with tephrochronology based on numerous well-dated tephra layers. We illustrate this with a...
