The New England Aquarium’s Lowell Lecture Series and the Lorenz Center of the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences at MIT presented the John H. Carlson Lecture featuring Dr. Dorthe Dahl-Jensen, a professor of physics of ice, climate, and earth at the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen.
Dahl-Jensen discussed the period between glaciations, 130,000 to 115,000 years ago—a key period for understanding our future climate. She also shared new results on the flow of ice sheets from deep ice core drilling in Northeast Greenland.
Free of charge and open to the public, this lecture was made possible by a generous gift from MIT alumnus John H. Carlson to the Lorenz Center in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences, MIT, and is presented in partnership with the New England Aquarium and the Lowell Institute.
