Specialties of Bryan G. Mark:
I am broadly interested in climate change, coupled human and natural systems, mountains, and glacier-hydrologic processes over different time scales. I conduct field work in many regions, including the Central Andes, North America and Africa. I incorporate a number of methods and techniques, including glacial geology; lake coring; hydrology; hydrochemistry; geospatial analysis and remote sensing; and modeling.
