Course summary

The palaeoclimate group blends climatology, oceanography, palaeontology, sedimentology, geochemistry and glaciology in order to understand the evolution of our planet’s climate and environment. To do this, we use a range of physically based computer simulation models, climate/ocean proxy data and statistical methods. This makes it possible to evaluate the ability of current climate models to reproduce past climate. Through this we are able to assess the predictive skill of these models, which is vital in the context of future climate change.
