This P2C2 grant is designed to fund interdisciplinary research that utilizes geological, chemical, and biological records to gain profound insights into Earth’s past climate variability. The core purpose is to understand the mechanisms, rates of change, and the sensitivity of the climate system to various forcings, as well as the response of key Earth components to these historical shifts. Specifically, this grant seeks to develop comprehensive paleoclimate datasets that can serve as critical test data for climate models, analogous to instrumental observations. Furthermore, it supports transformative syntheses of paleoclimate data alongside modeling outcomes to enhance our understanding of the longer-term and higher-magnitude climate system variability evident throughout the geological record.

| Description: | The goal of research funded under the interdisciplinary P2C2 solicitation is to utilize key geological, chemical, and biological records of climate system variability to provide insights into the mechanisms and rate of change that characterized Earth’s past climate variability, the sensitivity of Earth’s climate system to changes in forcing, and the response of key components of the Earth system to these changes. Important scientific objectives of P2C2 are to: 1) provide comprehensive paleoclimate data sets that can serve as model test data sets analogous to instrumental observations; and 2) enable transformative syntheses of paleoclimate data and modeling outcomes to understand the response of the longer-term and higher magnitude variability of the climate system that is observed in the geological record. |
