Uncovering the Neoproterozoic Carbon Cycle… : DASH Story 2016-04-04
Story content
I am an historian and philosopher of science. I specialize in scientific controversy, especially in those in modern Earth science. I've now become interested in the controversy over Neoproterozoic pan-glaciation. The Harvard website on snowball Earth and this website [are] wonderful aide[s] in tracting down and getting copies of key papers. This is especially nice for me because I retired two years ago, and have less access to journals. Moreover, websites ease the task of getting needed papers enormously. Since getting these papers is for historians analogous to doing fieldwork for Earth scientists, I can now do much of my fieldwork without having to go out into the field, without getting interlibrary loans and trips to libraries
