position is part of an NSF-funded project titled, “Mid-Miocene climate,
vegetation, and disturbance dynamics of the Pacific Northwest”. We are
focused on reconstructing vegetation changes at high resolution to study
the causes of abrupt ecosystem changes in the mid-Miocene, when
temperatures were 4-7°C warmer than pre-industrial conditions, close to
the most dire projections for warming at the end of the 21st century.
One part of this project is to reconstruct landscape stability through
elemental geochemistry measured through X-ray fluorescence of sediments.</font></font></i></font></div><div style="margin-left:40px" class=""><font size="2" class=""><i class=""><br class=""></i></font></div><div style="margin-left:40px" class=""><font size="2" class=""><i class=""><b class=""><font style="vertical-align:inherit" class=""><font style="vertical-align:inherit" class="">The
