Dr. Terry Quinn

Dr. Terrence Quinn was appointed interim director of the Institute for Geophysics at The University of Texas at Austin's Jackson School of Geosciences in January 2009. Quinn’s expertise centers on using geochemistry to understand climate variability in the tropical oceans. He is also interested in using paleoclimate records to explore the full spectrum of natural climate variability and collaborating with climate dynamicists to investigate how past variations in the climate system can be used to constrain the prediction of future behavior of the climate system. Quinn has served on scientific advisory groups of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (Scientific Planning Committee) and the National Science Foundation (Marine Aspects of Earth System History).
