Field Museum scientist searches Greenland fossils for warming clues
Field Museum paleobotanist Jennifer McElwain leads a year long study mining over a ton of sediment and 1000 fossils from Hurry Fjord Greenland to test how higher carbon dioxide levels could affect plant pores and the global ecology. The project, funded by National Geographic Society, seeks to link Triassic Jurassic plant life records to modern climate change, while debates over meteor impacts and volcanic sulfur emissions color competing extinction theories.
