Andrea M. Shilling studies past environments and climates recorded in geological materials, using evidence like vegetation records, wetlands, and lake sediments to reconstruct how landscapes and water resources changed over hundreds to thousands of years. A recurring focus is reconstructing ancient environments at sites in East Africa that are important for understanding early human history, as well as ancient lake systems.
