He promoted the use of water stable isotopomers for reconstructing past climate changes from ice cores and with associated atmospheric modelling using both dynamically simple and General Circulation Models (GCMs). (eurasc.org)
Although scientists know that the tools for reconstructing past climates at polar latitudes are far from perfect, he says, pinning down the relationship between isotope ratios and temperature is essential. (scientificamerican.com)
«This well - designed study suggests that climate change is the factor causing the growth spurt,» says Greg Wiles, who reconstructs past climates using tree rings at Wooster College in Ohio. (newscientist.com)
