Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies Earth's past climate, using computer simulations and geological/chemical records (such as ocean sediment cores) to understand how carbon dioxide levels, ocean circulation, and temperatures have changed over millions of years, from ancient warm periods like the Eocene and Miocene to more recent glacial cycles. Some work also reconstructs atmospheric CO2 history from marine archives and examines how climate sensitivity (how much warming results from a given rise in CO2) may or may not vary across different climate states. A smaller line of work looks at dissolved gas effects on fish in rivers, which is more applied environmental chemistry.
