Eva B. Koppelhus studies the complementary disciplines of palaeobotany (fossil plants) and palynology (fossil spores and pollen). She has a keen interest in fossils from the Cretaceous of Alberta, Antarctica, Argentina, and Asia. Her research offers clues about the age, adaptations, and evolution of plant lineages, which in turn contribute to interpreting and reconstructing palaeoenvironments. Eva’s extensive fieldwork and research spans across Alberta (Dinosaur Provincial Park, Grande Prairie, and Danek Bonebed) and the world (Antarctica, Argentina, Brazil, Denmark, England, Greenland, Madagascar, Mongolia, and Sweden). From the Gobi Desert to the frozen expanse of Antarctica, her international research contributions and field expeditions earned her the Stefansson Medal in 2011 from the Canadian Chapter of The Explorers Club, and the Antarctica Service Medal of the United States of America in 2012.
And served as a scientific consultant in When Dinosaurs Roamed America.
