Over the past several decades, technological advancements have stimulated unparalleled growth in paleoproxy development, including elemental, isotopic, morphometric, and ecological studies of biomineralizers. These biomineralizers include, but are not limited to, nannofossils, siliceous and calcareous microfossils, corals, and molluscs. This session aims to highlight new and developing paleoproxy applications and methods from members of the community at various career stages. We welcome submissions from field-based, laboratory culture, and fossil studies that advance the utility of paleoceanographic proxies. By sharing emerging research in paleoproxy development, we aim to generate discussion focused on improving our ability to reconstruct climate and ocean dynamics at variable spatial and temporal scales.
