Bob Kopp's research program has two major themes: (1) understanding different past states of the Earth system and the transitions between them, in order to test models of future global change, and (2) quantifying human impact on the global climate and assessing technology and policy solutions for limiting this impact. His presentation at Lafayette will focus on the recent record of sea level variability (geologically speaking) and how its study may inform models of future sea level change.
