This award aims to reconstruct water temperatures and salinity in the coastal SW Florida region during the past 2,000 years using oxygen isotope data generated from dated aragonitic mollusk shells and fish otoliths preserved in archaeological deposits. The research employs a novel approach to reconstruct pre-industrial, low-latitude climate from biotic, isotopic, and archaeological archives. The project will support new relatively investigators and their graduate students in a strong outreach effort involving the Florida Museum of Natural History.

该奖项的目的是重建水温和盐度在沿海西南佛罗里达地区在过去的2,000年中使用氧同位素数据产生的文石类软体动物壳和鱼耳石保存在考古沉积物。该研究采用了一种新的方法，从生物，同位素和考古档案中重建工业化前的低纬度气候。该项目将支持新的相对研究人员和他们的研究生在一个强大的推广工作，涉及佛罗里达自然历史博物馆。
