Detailed information about each of our team members’ roles on the RAW project:
Dr. Allison Cluett, NSF Postdoctoral Scholar at Northern Arizona University, is developing proxy system models to quantify past changes in proxy records.
Dr. Michael Erb, Assistant Research Professor in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University, is leading model simulations and proxy system modeling.
Harleena Franklin, PhD student in the Dept of Geology at the University at Buffalo, is using multi-proxy analyses to study Arctic water cycle dynamics during past rapid warming events.
Hannah Holtzman, MS student in the Dept of Geology at the University at Buffalo, is using biomarker proxies to reconstruct the climate history of the Kola Peninsula, Russia.
Dr. Darrell Kaufman, Regents’ Professor in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University is leading age model generation , using new small-sample methods.
Dr. Nick McKay, Associate Professor in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University is leading updates to the Arctic paleoclimate database, both by unearthing ‘dark data’ and adding recently published datasets.
Laura Schley, PhD student in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University, will focus on the geochronological aspects of the project including novel small-sample radiocarbon dating methods.
Franklyn Telles, PhD student in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University, will focus on using proxy and model data to improve simulations of Earth’s climate.
Dr. Elizabeth Thomas, Assistant Professor of Geology at the University at Buffalo, is the RAW project lead and is leading generation of climate records using biomarker and stable isotope proxies at sites in Russia, Alaska, and the Canadian Arctic.
