My professor introduced us to a very niche type of climate proxy in lab today, and now that’s all I can think about.
The lab was about tree rings, and he mentioned the word “pollen” along a list of other commonly proxies used. But pollen???? That’s unnecessarily interesting to me and is eating at my brain. He spent almost an hour talking about it to me after lab bc omg no that’s so cool and I have so many questions
#guys you don’t get it#that can be used to not only trace the paleoclimate#but also the migration of plants#wanna know what follows plants???#animals.#wanna know what I super want to study???#the push and pull of plants and animals through revolution#*evolution#like it will only go back so far on the time scale#but!!!!!!#it’s still part of what I want to do#like doing the edge peices of a puzzle#or the corners
