INQUA 2444my: European Correlation of Quaternary Stages Boundaries (EQ)
European Quaternary stratigraphy and correlation is an ongoing research topic and serves as a base for mapping and unravelling local to regional Quaternary sequences.

INQUA 2453 my: Palaeo-Hydrology: Ancient disasters, modern application (PHADMA)
PHADMA project targets the global spatial and temporal distribution of past hydrological extremes, to improve the quality of risk assessments, and modern flood event attribution.
- Running
INQUA 2405 my: PALeo constraints on SEA level rise (PALSEA_next)
The PALSEA_next project aims to better define observational constraints on past sea-level change and improve our understanding of ice-sheet responses to rapid climate change.
- Running
INQUA 2412 my: Mapping Ancient Africa: Climate, vegetation and humans – Phase II (MAACH 2.0)
The aim of the project is to bring together researchers to gain a better understanding of the relationships between climate change and hominin evolution and cultural development in Africa.
- Past

INQUA 2404 my: EvolutiOn of Seascapes (OnSea)
ONSEA aims at creating a large interdisciplinary community of PhD, DCR, ECR and SS, sharing common interest in the study of the geomorphological evolution and the human occupation of the coastlines during the Holocene.
- Past
Project 2440 sa: Geochronology and prehistoric archaeology of fluvial terraces (GPAFT)
Improving understanding of the techniques involved in the study of, and processes affecting fluvial environments, and the evidence for human activity in those environments
- Running
Project 2439 my: Warm Intervals in the Southern Hemisphere (WiSH)
This project develops a southern hemisphere-focused community of practice on understanding the nature, properties and spatio-temporal patterns of warm intervals in the southern hemisphere during the Quaternary.
- Past
Project 2436 sy: Defining a common PMIP-carbon protocol (PMIP)
The PMIP-carbon community is drafting a shared science plan and experimental design in order to perform coupled climate-carbon simulations within the next phase of PMIP.
- Running
Project 2431 my: INTegrating Ice core, Marine and TErrestrial records for advanced palaeoclimate reconstruction (INTIMATE)
INTIMATE (INTegrating Ice core, Marine and TErrestrial records) is a large, diverse, international community of palaeoclimatologists interested in better understanding abrupt and extreme climate changes.
