I am a climate scientist, working to understand the response of our environment to human activities. In my research, we develop and interpret records of environmental variability in our oceans from the topics to the poles. From these records, we work to understand mechanisms driving natural variability in chemical, biological, and physical oceanography, along with the response of the ocean to anthropogenic climate change. My research is funded with grants from the National Science Foundation, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Geographic Society, and the Luce Foundation.
