A climatologist is someone who collects data, investigates the indicators related to climate, and makes predictions about climate patterns. Using computer models, they can show how it is believed that the earth's climate has changed over time. They use tree rings, lake sediments, and glacial ice cores and other sources of information to theoretically determine what the earth's climate may have been like. Sophisticated computer programs check new data against the old, and make models of what has been learned. Also, climatologists conduct research to find out whether humans are affecting the earth's climate in any way. They are not limited to earth, however. Some climatologists study the climate of other planets, such as Mars.
