The People Behind the ERC Dispersal project | Scientist Interview #4

Meet Guillaume Dupont-Nivet, CNRS researcher and specialist in paleoclimate and paleogeography. In this fifth episode of The People Behind ERC Dispersal, he explains how paleomagnetism helps reconstruct ancient climates and landscapes, providing key insights into the environments through which mammals and primates dispersed during the Eocene. Based at Geosciences Rennes, France, his work contributes to refining the timing and geographic framework needed to understand how life evolved across a changing world. Guillaume also shares his perspective on the challenges faced by researchers today and the questions that continue to drive his scientific curiosity. Understanding past climates and landscapes is essential to better grasp how ecosystems respond to environmental change through time. 🔔 Subscribe for more interviews with scientists in geoscience and climate research. 🔗 Explore more ERC DISPERSAL – CEREGE https://www.cerege.fr/fr/sciences/cli...
