Key Research Interests and Expertise
My current research in Greece continues from my PhD (completed in 2008) with
Mike Leeder,
Julian Andrews and
Peter Rowe. The study methods include fieldwork, drainage systems modeling and analysis, sequence stratigraphy and dating of associated fossil material, with collaborators from Athens University, Greece, Bergen University, Norway. The Gulf of Corinth is also the focus of research with
Victor Bense,
Paul Dennis and PhD students Sian Loveless and
Jennifer Macdonald towards understanding fluid dynamics of fault zones in unconsolidated sediments.
Corals and marine shells from Greece and Cyprus are the focus of PhD student
Sam Royle's study testing marine fossil as recorders of high resolution palaeoclimate conditions, which I am supervising with
Julian Andrews (Primary Supervisor).
Quaternary palaeoclimate research in the UK includes the challenges of resolving the number and timing of glaciations in East Anglia. This continues my MSc in Quaternary Science at Royal Holloway, University of London. My palaeoclimate interests now extend to warmer climates on establishing the rate and magnitude of sea level change during the last interglacial from marine and terrestrial sediments in Greece with
Julian Andrews,
Peter Rowe and
Mike Leeder.
