The US Geological Survey, Fort Collins Science Center is offering this grant to conduct vital research aimed at significantly extending the North American paleoclimate record. This funding opportunity is for the purpose of pushing the historical climate understanding back an additional 2000 years. Researchers will achieve this by leveraging a novel compilation of diverse environmental data. This comprehensive approach involves synthesizing information derived from various sources, including pollen and tree ring records, speleotherms, ice cores, coral, marine sediments, and glacial landforms. The grant supports groundbreaking studies that integrate these disparate data sets to reconstruct a more complete and accurate long-term climate history for North America.
