| Brief Description
|
Nuclear Methods in Earth Systems uses isotopic and nuclear techniques to trace the impact of humans on the environment. |
|
|
Earth systems science recognises that knowledge of the history of environmental variability and human-environment interactions improves our understanding of the functioning of Earth systems and their response, or vulnerability, |
|
|
to current and future impacts. The techniques and instruments used by researchers in this group enable them to reconstruct human impacts on ecosystems over the past 8000 years. |
|
|
The Nuclear Methods in Earth Systems group have formed partnerships and collaborations with many of the worlds leading research institutes, and undertake fieldwork on sites around Australia, and the world. |
|
|
Study areas include:
- Tracing Human Impacts on Earth Systems
- Contaminant Science
- Nuclear Methods in the Carbon Cycle |
