Professor William Berry has taught stratigraphic paleontology, sedimentary geology, and life and environments through time. Presently, he teaches environmental geology, climate change and paleoceanography.

His major research interests are in global climate change and paleogeographic, oceanographic and life changes in the Ordovician and Silurian. The primary focus of his research at present is on the major developments before, during and after the Late Ordovician glaciation.

One research/teaching project in the environmental geology area is a cooperative program being developed with a small NGO, the Urban Watershed Institute, and the Environmental Sciences curriculum at Galileo High in San Francisco. The program is funded currently by the Berkeley Pledge to create enriched educational opportunities for students from certain inner city high schools so that they may be more appropriately qualified to enter UC Berkeley.

Another environmental program is concerned with a number of environmental issues involving urban stream and wetlands restorations in Catalonia (Spain) being conducted by faculty at the Autonomous University in Barcelona, Spain.
