Nd Isotope Investigation of North Atlantic Deep Water Production over the past 50,000 Years and Education in Geology

该CAREER奖将支持研究开发使用Nd同位素在化石鱼牙齿和应用这种工具作为古水团示踪剂的北大西洋深水和地中海风化的变化在末次冰期/间冰期周期。 两名研究生将参与这项研究。 教育活动包括帮助开发地球系统科学课程，该课程将以课程笔记和实验练习的WWW网站为特色。

This CAREER award will support research to develop the use of Nd isotopes in fossil fish teeth and apply this tool as a paleo- watermass tracer of North Atlantic Deep Water and variations in Mediterranean weathering during the last glacial/interglacial cycle. Two graduate students will be involved in the research. Educational activities include helping to develop a curriculum in Earth Systems Science which will feature WWW sites with course notes and lab exercises.
