PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE a. PRESENT USGS ASSIGNMENTS DATES From: 2004 To: Present Abrupt Climate Change: Eastern United States: Project Chief, Funding Earth Surface Dynamics (ESD) Assignment: Design and implement project to study the paleoclimatic record from marine, estuarine, and lacustrine sediments in order to reconstruct temperature, precipitation variability during periods of rapid climatic change and glacial lake drainage history as a trigger for abrupt climate events. Focus is on abrupt events during the last deglaciation including the Holocene 8.2 ka event, the Medieval Warm Period, the Little Ice Age, and the past two centuries. Integrates stratigraphic, geophysical, glacial geology and paleoclimate studies of Lake Champlain post-glacial history. My role: Coordinate research divided into six elements: Glacial Lake Chronology and Impacts, Glacial-lake modeling, Latitudinal reconstruction of abrupt climate even
