Glaciers and Climate Lab

Queens College CUNY

In the Queens College Glaciers and Climate Lab, we investigate the impacts of past climate change on Earth's surface with an eye towards improving societal outcomes under a warming climate. We primarily use cosmogenic nuclides and GIS to generate high-resolution records of glaciation over the Quaternary period. Major focus areas of our research program include glacier and ice sheet response to abrupt climate oscillations and generating ice reconstructions for data-model comparison.
