Next TU Science Café to focus on ancient climate change
Post Published On:The next installment in Thomas University’s popular Science Café lecture series will be held online on Tuesday, Oct. 27, via Zoom.
Dr. Jeremy Owens of the Florida State University Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Science will present “Ancient Climate Change: The Connection Between Marine Deoxygenation and Extinction Events” at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27. His research revolves around understanding biogeochemical evolution during major climatic events. Dr. Owens is currently working on developing new geochemical tools to better fingerprint the timing and evolution during these events. Much of this work focuses on the need to better discern natural variability and mechanisms to understand future climate change.
A chat with the speaker will begin at 6 p.m. with the lecture starting at 6:30 p.m. To request a Zoom link or for more information, please email April Penton, Science Café coordinator, at apenton@thomasu.edu.
