Preferred term

Wallace Broecker  

Definition

  • Wallace Broecker (1931–) is an American oceanographer, Newberry Professor of Geology at Columbia University, and scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory who made major contributions to chemical oceanography, especially oceanic mixing based on radioisotopic distribution. Broecker set the research agenda for the field of paleoclimatology due to his ability to devise coherent pictures of how all the different elements of the Earth shape the planet's climate.
