Paleoclimatology
Research at UCSB

 
  Paleoclimatology
  Recent advances in paleoclimatology are showing the Earth's climate to be highly dynamic and unstable. Researchers at UCSB are leading the way in this exciting field looking at detailed paleoclimate records from ocean sediments, groundwater chemistry, and fossil plant records.
