The 9th Workshop on Non-Pollen Palynomorphs that will be held 25-28 September 2022 at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (Poland).
It will start on Sunday with the on-site registration and Icebreaker Party. Then it is planned to have a full day of oral and poster presentations. On Tuesday a field trip will take place, followed by dinner. Wednesday will be a day of the microscope session with invited specialists dealing with various organisms – potential NPPs.
If you are interested and would like to join the workshop, write an e-mail to Monika Karpińska-Kołaczek (monkar2@amu.edu.pl) by the end of April 2022.

The European Pollen Database (EPD) is planning an in person meeting in Prague in June (1st-3rd) 2022, aiming to bring together palynologists and researchers using different proxies that
may be archived in Neotoma (macrofossils, sedaDNA, charcoal, geochemistry, isotopes).
You are invited to training workshops ranging from quantitative land cover reconstructions over
Non-Pollen Palynomorphs to several R-based sessions. Topics of keynotes lectures will spread over
the diverse proxies and interaction of the Neotoma community including aDNA and archaeobotany. A
poster session will give you the opportunity to showcase your own research.
All those interested please complete this form to register. The
accommodation of many attendants will be supported, depending on the number of applicants, career stage and country
of origin. Registration is free.

НПП на IPC: M04 "Extra microfossils in pollen slides: from environmental indicators to biotic interactions".
Регистрация до 31 марта 2020 на conference website.
Session M04 "Extra microfossils in pollen slides: from environmental indicators to biotic interactions":
Non-pollen palynomorphs (NPPs) represent a large, heterogeneous group of organism remains that appear as “extra microfossils” in pollen slides. Taxonomically, NPPs belong to a wide variety of fungi, animals, algae, and plants. Although many NPPs still remain unknown, they provide essential ecological information that can be used to interpret environmental and landscape changes in the past. NPPs record former environmental conditions, allowing assessment of trophic stage, moisture conditions, dry phases, pastoral activities, disturbances and erosion in the study area. Furthermore, they represent an essential tool for tracing biotic interactions in the last several thousands to millions of years. Identification of NPPs, improvements in understanding their ecological meaning, critical evaluation of their indicative values, biases and limitations of these proxies, are crucial questions for palaeoecological reconstructions. We welcome presenters exploring NPPs in a broad range of disciplines, including modern ecology, palaeoecology, palaeopalynology, forensic science and aerobiology to share their newly gained knowledge.

NPP session # 28 "Filling the gaps about non-pollen palynomorph ecological significance" at the EPPC 2018 in Dublin, Ireland:
Since first introduced 40 years ago, the description and analysis of terrestrial organic-walled microfossils other than pollen, moss and fern spores from pollen slides have enabled to further explore past environmental conditions, such as relating human activities and landscape. Many of the so called non-pollen palynomorphs have been identified and their ecological significance specified, thus providing valuable additional information to classical palaeo-ecological studies. However, the ecology of many described types is still unknown. The very nature of NPPs is multi-disciplinary. More than ever is it necessary to combine efforts of experts from a broad scale of domains to develop the NPPs’ vast potential.
The objective of this session is to make a leap forward regarding our understanding of the significance of current or new palynomorphs. By comparing the occurrence of new or poorly known NPP taxa with the ecological conditions reconstructed from other proxies, multi-disciplinary studies are likely to reveal the ecological requirements of these types. During this anniversary session, we would like to emphasise such studies in order to shed new light about the ecological value of NPPs. We believe this will serve and extend the interpretation of future studies. To this aim, we welcome proposals that unveil so far unsuspected value to new or known NPPs from any taxonomical group. We encourage proposals covering large time scales within the Quaternary period, but also studies on modern assemblages.
