Concurrently, and by using the same baseline data, our aim is to make a significant contribution to climate research, particularly regarding temperature oscillations on various time-scales through the past 10,000 years. This in turn will provide a basis for more precise predictions regarding the adaptation of human and natural populations to future climate change.<em>\u00a0<\/em>Our current focus is on isotope and element analyses of prehistoric foodways and climate change.<\/p>\n<p>The research group is led by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.uit.no\/om\/enhet\/ansatte\/person?p_document_id=42192&amp;p_dimension_id=88152\">Professor H.
