Our climate change experts have worked at universities, non-profits, and renowned research facilities around the country. These experts specialize in:

  • Marine geology
  • Coastal erosion processes
  • Statistical ecology
  • Environmental science
  • Biostatistics
  • Geochemistry
  • Atmospheric changes
  • Earth-system processes
  • Greenhouse gas measurement
  • CO2 & CH4
  • Climate modeling
  • Sustainable farming
