of Job: Provides support for a National Science Foundation (NSF)
collaborative project in conjunction with the University of
Montana to utilize an integrated data/model approach designed to
address the long-standing enigma of Pliocene Arctic warmth. The
goal of the project is to give a clarifying explanation of the
interaction among terrestrial feedback mechanisms during the
Pliocene and their role in amplifying Arctic surface
temperatures.</p>
