Andrew Clarke

Andrew Clarke is Professor in the School of Environmental Sciences at University of East Anglia, specializing in polar ecosystems and evolutionary physiology. His interdisciplinary research examines biological responses to climate change across timescales.

Key research areas:

• Physiological limits of Antarctic organisms
• Dinosaur energetics and extinction mechanisms
• Biogeochemical cycling in polar oceans
• Microbial controls on atmospheric chemistry

His publications demonstrate expertise in reconstructing past climate-biology interactions, with recent work establishing temperature thresholds for terrestrial life and analyzing marine export fluxes in Antarctic ecosystems.
