About
I am a paleoceanographer who is studying marine sediment cores as archives of past climate variability. Applied proxies methods include foraminiferal trace elements and stable isotopes (oxygen, carbon,boron), bulk sediment geochemistry by XRF-scanning, foraminiferal counts, ice rafted debris. I have a special interest in the climate response to orbital forcing.
At Cardiff I work on the FP7 GATEWAYS project, which focuses on past and present variability of the Agulhas Current off southern Africa. Within GATEWAYS one of my aims is to integrate paleoclimate reconstructions with climate modeling results.
Further current research interests include subjects such as the global monsoon variability on millennial to orbital timescales, timing of ice age terminations, origin of glacial North Atlantic cold events, the reconstruction of Plio-Pleistocene atmospheric pCO2 and the use of Bromine XRF scanning counts to reconstruct sea-surface salinity.
