Low-temperature geochemistry enlists a wide range of traditional scientific disciplines (e.g. chemistry, biology, geology) to address questions involving Earth surface processes, modern climate studies, deep time, and many more. At Harvard and under this heading, our department has a particular interest in the study of Earth history. Often termed Geobiology, our strengths include the study of paleontology, sedimentology, and biogeochemistry, all of which requires a truly interdisciplinary approach to science.
