  • Bridging environmental physiology and community ecology : temperature effects at the community level

    Creator:
    Iles, Alison C.
    Abstract:
    Most climate change predictions focus on the response of individual species to changing local conditions and ignore species interactions, largely due to the lack of a sound theoretical foundation for how interactions are expected to change with climate and how to incorporate them into climate change models. Much of the...

  • New Insights on the Southern Ocean Carbon Cycle from Biogeochemical Argo Floats

    Creator:
    Williams, Nancy L.
    Abstract:
    The Southern Ocean plays an important role in the ocean’s uptake of heat and carbon yet the processes controlling this uptake are not well understood. To date, more than 100 biogeochemical profiling floats that measure water column pH, oxygen, nitrate, fluorescence, and backscattering at 10-day intervals have been deployed throughout...

  • Analyzing large paleoclimate datasets : implications for past and future climate change

    Creator:
    Shakun, Jeremy D.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents the results of statistical analyses of large climate datasets from two time intervals – the 20th century instrumental record and the proxy record of the last deglaciation – in order to understand the forcings and mechanisms of past climate variability. A longstanding question in climate dynamics concerns...
