Ice cores • Extreme climate events • Geochemistry
She is studying water isotopes found in ice cores to understand extreme climate event behaviors.
Prior to CU, Brooke lived in Buffalo, NY, where she received her B.S. in Geology at the University at Buffalo (2022). Throughout her undergraduate studies, she worked on a paleoclimate project with Dr. Jason Briner (University at Buffalo), which utilized sediment cores to better constrain the timing of the recession of the Laurentide Ice Sheet following the Last Glacial Maximum out of Western New York. Furthermore, Brooke hopes to contribute to science communication to help shape environmental policy and extend the impacts her research has on society.
