Unique Insights to the Earth's Climate History
Preserved in its Cryosphere

by Ellen Mosley-Thompson Professor, Department of Geography Senior Research Scientist, Byrd Polar Research Center The Ohio State University May 16, 2005 4:30 p.m., EST Wexner Center Film/Video Theater 1871 North High Street Columbus, Ohio

The University Distinguished Lecture Series was inaugurated in 1996 as one
of the University’s highest honors for a senior faculty member. The lectureship
is awarded in recognition of outstanding academic achievement, particularly, but not exclusively, in research, scholarship, or creative activity. The President’s and Provost’s Advisory Committee reviews nominations and recommends candidates
to the President and Provost for final selection.

The Office of Academic Affairs presents an award of $5,000 to the University Distinguished Lecturer to designate for a purpose that promotes the academic goals of the lecturer's college and/or of the University. Professor Mosley-Thompson has designated her award to support the ice core paleoclimate research group at The Ohio State University.
