I am a geoscientist interested in glacial geology and landscape change in terrestrial and marine settings. My research focuses on:
1. Reconstructing the glacial history of NW Europe and the surrounding continental shelf;
2. Measuring and understanding modern rates of glacier change;
3. Refining geochronological surface-dating techniques;
4. Enhanced landscape and seabed mapping;
5. Characterizing glacial sediments, with particular reference to sub-surface fluid storage.
