Reconstructions of the temperature history of the last 1000 years. The MBH '99 version is in blue

Michael Mann teaches at the University of Virginia, in the Department of Environmental Sciences . He has been organizing committee chair for the National Academy of Sciences ‘Frontiers of Science’ and has served as a committee member or advisor for other National Academy of Sciences panels. He served as editor for the ‘Journal of Climate’ and has been a member of numerous international and U.S. scientific advisory panels and steering groups. Dr. Mann has been the recipient of several fellowships and prizes, including selection as one of the 50 leading visionaries in Science and Technology by Scientific American, the outstanding scientific publication award of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and recognition by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) for notable citation of his refereed scientific research. He is author of more than 70 peer-reviewed journal publications .

He is best known for his palaeoclimate reconstructions of the past millenia from tree ring, ice core, coral and other data, where he challenged the previous consensus on the Medieval Warm Period and Little Ice Age and then acted as lead author of the "Observed Climate Variability and Change" chapter of the IPCC Third Assessment Report to make the "Hockey Stick graph" the new consensus. See temperature record of the past 1000 years for more details and dispute.

He has been a referee for Nature, Science, Climatic Change, Geophysical Research Letters, Journal of Climate, JGR-Oceans, JGR-Atmospheres, Paleoceanography, Climate Dynamics, Eos, Int. J. Climatol., Water Resources Research, Holocene, Atmospheric & Solar-Terrestrial Physics; GSA Today; Earth and Planetary Science Letters; Water Resources Research; Climate Research; NSF, NOAA, DOE grant programs. An author of a paper raising comments about his work noted that it became easy to publish "once we did not have Michael Mann as a referee". .
