This project investigates the relationship between climate signals and the genetic makeup of marine algae to understand historical atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. By analyzing the enzyme Rubisco, the project aims to uncover biological mechanisms that influence climate sensitivity over millions of years.
Two key variables, temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide (pCO2), define the sensitivity of the Earth’s climate system.
The geological record provides our only evidence of the past climate sensitivity of the Earth system, but there is no direct quantitative measure of pCO2 or temperature beyond the 650 kyr extent of the Antarctic ice cores.
The reconstruction of past climate, on timescales of millions of years, relies on the analysis of chemical or isotopic proxies in preserved shells or org…
