Operating name: PEARL Paleoecological Environmental Assesment & Research Lab
Drs. John Smol and Brian Cumming are the two faculty members associated with the PEARL. PEARL is a group of approximately 25 scientists dedicated to the development and implication of applied and theoretical paleolimnology. Over the last ten years, PEARL has used paleolimnological approaches to study a wide range of environmental issues including: lake acidification and eutrophication, fisheries declines, metals and toxic pollution, biodiversity, environmental change in the Arctic, and drought cycles in western Canada.
PEARL is actively involved in a number of international programs including a study of climatic change in Siberia, ongoing research on acid rain in North America and Europe, new initiatives in Sri Lanka , and climatic change research in arid and semi-arid regions. Well over 200 publications have been produced from PEARL. In 1993, the North American Lake Management Society presented the Technical Excellence Award to Dr. Smol and PEARL.
