Welcome! The Climate and Water lab is headed by Dr. Sylvia Dee, a climate scientist specializing in atmospheric modeling, water isotope physics, and climate data-model comparison.
Our research combines climate information from the Past and Present to improve predictions of Future climate.
Our work focuses on strategies for linking data from general circulation models, satellite retrievals of stable water isotope ratios, and high-resolution paleoclimate observations such as ice cores, tree rings, and corals.
This year, we are welcoming FOUR new members to our lab! Check out their bios on the "People" page!
Please contact sylvia.dee@rice.edu for information about Ph.D. and postdoc positions. Undergraduate students at Rice can also reach out for research opportunities in the lab.
