Maureen E  Raymo
Bruce C. Heezen Lamont Research Professor, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University. 
Maureen's expertise is in paleoclimatology, paleoceanography, geochemistry, marine geology.

Jerry X Mitrovica
Professor, Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Harvard University
Jerry is active in the fields of geodynamics, glacial isostasy, sea level and Earth rotation.

David Pollard
Senior Scientist, Earth System Science Center and Earth & Environmental Systems Institute, Pennsylvania State University.
Dave is an expert in the application and construction of ice sheet and climate models, including the coupling of large geophysical numerical codes, and in applying these models to paleoclimatic problems.

Robert DeConto
Professor, Department of geosciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
Rob is an Earth System modeler and paleoclimatologist with extensive expertise in GCM-ice sheet coupling, the adaptation of nested, high-resolution regional climate and ice models over Antarctica and Greenland, and methods of model-data comparison.

Paul J Hearty
Research Associate Professor, Dept. of Environmental Studies, University of North Carolina, Wilmington. 
Paul’s expertise includes stratigraphy, sedimentology, paleontology, and the geologic record of sea level change.
