Dr. Lonnie Thompson
Professor
Department of Geological Sciences
Dr. Thompson is the international pioneer in acquisition and interpretation
of tropical and subtropical ice core histories. In short, he is
the world's expert in deciphering clues to ancient climate trapped
inside ice from some of the Earth's harshest environments. He
has led 35 expeditions to remote ice caps in Peru, Bolivia, China,
Antarctica, Russia, Kenya and other regions. He has authored,
or co-authored, 109 papers published in refereed journals, including
10 in the prestigious journal Science. In addition, his predictions
about the growing impact of global warming have been sought by
the U.S. Congress, the vice president, and colleagues around the
world. Earlier this year, he predicted that within 15 years, massive
mountainous ice caps and glaciers around the world would melt
because of global warming. For his groundbreaking research into
the problem, Thompson was named one of America's best scientists
by Time magazine and the Cable News Network.
