Research Interests
· Coastal Sedimentology: Developing basic sedimentation models for interpreting ancient sedimentary deposits, particularly tidal deposits.
· Quaternary Climate Change and Paleotempestology: Reconstruction of Late Quaternary environmental change by deciphering stratigraphic records, typically in the coastal and shelf regions. Developing long-term records of intense storms from sedimentary and documentary archives.
