Rosemary Bush is an Associate Professor in the Department of Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on understanding plant communities and environments influenced by Earth’s history. This involves the study of plant ecology, paleoclimate, and climate-ecosystem dynamics. She investigates stable isotope ratios of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen found in plant tissue to record the plant’s environment in both modern and fossil ecosystems, correlating plant-based environmental proxies such as leaf morphology. The relationships derived from this research are used to reconstruct ancient ecosystems across a variety of places and time periods, from the Cretaceous to recent times, allowing for a nuanced understanding of the biota-climate dynamics throughout history.
