North America is home to the Great Lakes—Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior—spanning the borders of several U.S.

New research using climate models provides fascinating insights into how environmental conditions influenced the evolution ...

Our two labs help process and analyze sediment samples and sediment cores collected from terrestrial, lake, and marine environments. We perform chemical and physical analyses on sediments and other ...

By studying the magnetization of sediment cores taken from the time, scientists identified that the magnetic field briefly flipped during this time period. "The field geometry of reversed polarity ...

Climate change impacts not only life on land but also the largely unexplored deep-sea ecosystem, home to unique and largely unexplored fauna. Deep-sea animals, which have adapted to stable and ...

A newly discovered half-million-year-old layer of volcanic sediment beneath the Aegean Sea rewrites what scientists know about this area’s volcanic history – and potential future hazards.

The Bird's Foot Delta, a crucial ecological and economic hub, faces an uncertain future amid rising seas and dwindling sediment.

A new study conducted by the research team, utilising empirical data from deep-sea fossils extracted from sediment cores spanning 500,000 years, clearly demonstrated that temperature and food ...
