The Climate and Cryospheric Sciences research theme at Dartmouth College focuses on understanding past and present climate change from both regional and global perspectives. A key area of study is the impact of climate change on glaciers, including their extent and mass balance. This research ultimately examines how these changes influence society through mechanisms like sea-level rise and alterations in water supplies.
Graduates from this program are equipped for careers in a variety of fields related to climate science, environmental research, and policy.
