Field of work
Quaternary geologist interested in paleoclimate, glaciers and geohazards.
Research interest:
- Quaternary glacial geology
- Paleoclimatic reconstructions
- Geohazards and their interaction with climate in the past, present and future
- Source-to-sink approach fingerprinting geological processes using lake sediments
Currently teaching Introduction to geology (GE406) and Climate Change (GE483).
