Spotlight

Reading climate history out of a single ice core.

A cross-school team pairing glaciologists with the Computing & Data faculty has built a model that reconstructs eleven thousand years of atmospheric record from layered ice — and made the full dataset open to any researcher who asks.

The work began as an undergraduate thesis. It now anchors a federally funded lab.
