Teresa D. Avila

Teresa D. Avila's research focuses on Earth history, using fossils and geochemical signals in ancient rocks to understand past climate and environmental change. Her work includes studying isotope records (such as strontium and oxygen ratios in fossilized conodont teeth) to trace ancient weathering and warming events, as well as examining how living conditions shape the shells of intertidal bivalves (clams and mussels) over time.

Publication output has been low and irregular over the last decade, averaging under one paper per year in the most recent five-year period, with occasional gaps followed by small bursts of activity.
