WARREN PRELL

I research global-scale paleoceanography and local-scale estuarine oceanography. I am interested in the paleoceanographic evolution of the Cenozoic climate-ocean system and the interaction between global tectonic and orbital forcing on the evolution of climate. I study changes on the modern annual cycle and on geologic time scales. My estuarine oceanography research is on distribution and causes of low dissolved oxygen in Narragansett Bay.

I was promoted to full professor in 1989, and was appointed to the Henry L. Doherty Chair in Oceanography in 1990.
