The University of Arizona was awarded a $325,127 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to investigate climate variability in the Indian Ocean during the warm Pliocene period. The researchers will analyze marine sediment cores to determine short-term temperature fluctuations in the tropical and subtropical Indian Ocean around 3 million years ago. This data will be combined with climate modeling to understand how a warmer Indian Ocean may have...
