Jon Harbor's research centers on glaciers, ice sheets, and permafrost, examining how landscapes are shaped by past and present ice and frozen ground, particularly in Antarctica, the Tibetan Plateau, and Central Asia. His work combines fieldwork, geomorphological modeling, and dating techniques to reconstruct past climate and glacier histories, alongside a separate line of work on science education, professional training, and academic leadership practices in geography departments.
Publication output was higher a decade ago (around 15 papers/year in 2017-2018) and has generally slowed since, with more modest and somewhat variable output (roughly 2-7 papers/year) in recent years.
