معرفی
Hannah M. Carroll is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Science and Ecology at Western Colorado University, affiliated with the Natural & Environmental Sciences Department and the Clark Family School of Environment & Sustainability, where she teaches Environmental Biology, Science of Sustainability, Ecological Research Methods, and Scientific Computing.
Her educational background includes:
- Ph.D. in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology and Environmental Science (co-majors), Iowa State University, 2020
- B.S. in Environmental Science, University of Washington-Tacoma, 2008
Dr. Carroll's research integrates paleoclimatology, ecology, and biogeochemistry to investigate plant-climate interactions across geologic timescales. She specializes in clumped isotope paleothermometry, developing open-source software for reproducible statistical analysis while exploring applications in evolutionary biology and environmental reconstruction. Her educational philosophy emphasizes evidence-based methods to advance equity in STEM.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals a dominant focus on methodological innovation in isotope geochemistry, particularly clumped isotope calibration and standardization, with expanding interdisciplinary applications spanning entomology, marine biomineralization, and ecological education. These works consistently address climate reconstruction challenges through technical refinement and cross-field collaboration.
Her scientific recognition includes:
- IRACDA@UCLA faculty training program postdoctoral fellowship
- UCLA Center for Diverse Leadership in Science Early Career Fellowship
Dr. Carroll actively contributes to undergraduate and graduate science education through curriculum development in ecological methods and computational science, though specific advising details and research grants are not documented in available materials. Her work reflects strong alignment with the university's environmental sustainability mission through both research and pedagogy.
