John Sarao currently serves as a Visiting Assistant Professor at Lafayette College (Easton, PA), teaching courses on Oceanography, Climate Change, and Paleoclimatology. He obtained degrees from Virginia Tech (B.S. in Geology), University of Nebraska-Lincoln (M.S. in Geology), and Texas A&M University (Ph.D. in Geology). Prior to entering academia, John worked as a biostratigraphy consultant in the oil and gas industry for nearly a decade working over 200 wells in most of the major oil-producing basins in the world. Now that he has returned to academia, his research focuses on paleoclimate reconstruction using calcareous nannofossils as paleoecological indicators. John is also interested in nutrient competition among primary producers as it relates to nutrient delivery systems and understanding the fossil record.
