Multiproxy archives of late Holocene climate variabilityMultiproxy archives of late Holocene climate variability from ombrotrophic peatlands in eastern North America. We are developing new proxies based biomarker ratios and compound specific isotope ratios of lipids as well as cellulose oxygen isotope ratios to quantitatively reconstruct past hydrological changes from ombrotrophic peatlands.

Graduate student Jon Nichols and Yongsong Huang coring an Ombrotrophic bog
Jon Nichols and collaborators, including Steve Jackson (red cap, Tom Webb's former postdoc, now professor of botany at the University of Wyoming) collect specimens of typical bog plant species from Bloomingdale Bog, near Saranac Lake, NY.
