Research overview
My research focuses on reconstructing past climate change and its causes. I'm particularly interested in the cause of recent glacial-interglacial cycles, and climate changes over the Cenozoic. To study these questions I use geochemical measurements on fossils, sediments, water and ice, with a special focus on the boron isotope proxy for pH. I interpret these data with the help of a variety of numerical models. I'm also fascinated by biomineralisation processes in corals and foraminifera, and the insights that geochemistry offers into calcification and ocean acidification.
