Research Interests

  • Stable Isotope Geochemistry
  • Paleoceanography/Paleoclimate

Amy Wagner is an isotope geochemist and paleoceanographer/paleoclimatologist whose interests focus on natural and anthropogenic climate variability during the Holocene.

Her field areas include Monterey Bay, California, St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, Ross Sea, Antarctica and the Sierra high mountain meadows. She has students working on projects using isotope and trace metal geochemical data from corals and marine sediments to understand oceanographic changes throughout the Holocene associated with natural and anthropogenic climate change.
