Sediment Core
Time to get our hands dirty! Paleoclimate researchers study sediment cores, which are accumulated layers of mud and dead plant material collected in a long tube, to learn about what the climate and environment of the past was like.

Ice Cores
The cold never bothered our USGS scientists! They ask – do you want to collect an ice core?

Tree Rings
The secret lives of... trees? Trees can live for hundreds and sometimes thousands of years. As they grow, they add new layers of growth – or tree rings – that scientists can study to learn about the tree’s life. The width of tree rings often reflects the factor most influencing growth from one year to the next depending upon where the tree lives.

All of Earth’s ecosystems are directly or indirectly impacted by humans. But landscapes where people live, work, and travel can become dominated by people, such that the built environment and people’s daily activities control major ecological processes.

Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral Fellows Program: Overview
Hosted by the USGS Climate Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs), the Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral (CAP) Fellows Program supports applied research at both national and regional scales. Each two-year fellowship cohort is centered around a common climate theme. The 2022-2024 cohort is themed “The Future of Aquatic Flows.”

Spotlight: Megan Behnke, CAP Fellows Program
Megan Behnke is a Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral (CAP) fellow with the Alaska Climate Adaptation Science Center. Based out of the University of Alaska Southeast, her research explores how stream chemistry changes under new climate and stream conditions, and how these changes impact valuable fish species like salmon.
