The podcast (even if complicated) could easily be used in High School education as it introduce concepts that probably will be essential for a person interested in oceanography, earth science, biology et.c.
Prof. Montaņez is a scientist and among other things tell about how information extracted from these proxies fits beautiful with a computer model of her's - listen to the podcast and find out in what way :)
