Kate M. Swanger, Environmental, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, Climate Change Initiative
Assistant Professor
Expertise
Earth Surface processes & paleoclimatology, with an emphasis on glacial geology, permafrost processes & high-latitude climate change
Research Interest
My current research themes focus on the response of Antarctic ice sheets to late Cenozoic climate change, quantifying earth surface processes with rigorous field experiments and numerical modeling, and investigating the role of buried glacier ice in permafrost processes and their potential as climate archives.Educational Background
