​Erick Robinson, Ph.D., RPA, is an Associate Research Professor of Climate and Archaeology in the Division of Atmospheric Sciences at the Desert Research Institute, Reno, Nevada, USA. He is also Vice President and Senior Archaeologist at Native Environment Solutions in Boise, Idaho, USA, and Visiting Scholar in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change at Arizona State University. He is Co-Leader of the Past Global Change (PAGES) International Working Group “Paleoclimate and the Peopling of the Earth (People 3000)”. He specializes in geochronology, geoarchaeology, lithic technology, paleodemography, and paleoecology. He applies these methods to research on Holocene hunter-gatherers and agricultural transitions in northern Europe and western North America.  He has authored of over 50 publications, including co-editing the Springer Press book “Lithic Technological Organization and Paleoenvironmental Change: Global and Diachronic Perspectives”. He was part of thelong-term National Science Foundation-funded project “Populating a Radiocarbon Database for North America”, and is currently co-PI for the NSF-funded project “Hydroclimatic Variability and the Evolution of Socioecological Complexity in Dryland Farming Communities”.Dr. Susan K. Harris earned her Ph.D. at the University of California, Santa Barbara under the supervision of Dr. Michael Jochim, completing 6 field seasons as part of the Southwest German Archaeological Survey Project. She received a Fulbright Fellowship to study at the University of Tübingen, Germany and a National Science Foundation (NSF) Dissertation Improvement Grant for research on the Mesolithic in southwest Germany. She was co-Principal Investigator on a NSF-funded field project focusing on Neolithic chert resource acquisition in southwest Germany, and received a NSF  International Research Fellowship to analyze a chert quarry excavated as part of that project. Other projects include development of a database of Paleolithic sites in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, at the Center for Baltic and Scandinavian Archaeology. She was a co-editor on the volume The Final Palaeolithic of Northern Eurasia, Proceedings of the Amersfoort, Schleswig and Burgos UISPP Commission Meetings. Her research on the Mesolithic and Neolithic of southwest Germany has been presented at numerous conferences including the Society of American Archaeology annual meetings, the Mesolithic in Europe, and the UISPP Commission on Flint Mining in Pre and Protohistoric Times. Dr. Harris currently works for the Office of the Registrar at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Brian F. Codding is Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Archaeological Center at the University of Utah. His research explores the dynamic interactions between humans and ecosystems. He has authored or co-authored over 100 publications across ethnographic and archaeological contexts in the Americas and Australia, and hasbeen awarded multiple National Science Foundation grants to examine patterning in past and present socioenvironmental systems. Current projects focus on building robust methods for demographic reconstruction, assessing the impacts of climate change on Indigenous societies, understanding the emergence of social inequality among subsistence populations, identifying factors that promote peace within and between groups, and examining how long-term human-environment interactions shape ecosystem function in order to assist Tribal restoration efforts.
