Research Interests:

I'm interested in the reconstruction of long-term changes and interactions in the Earth system and its constituent elements (atmosphere, ocean and biota).

For my doctoral studies, I will be testing the impact that clay mineralogy and solution chemistry have on the efficacy with which boron is adsorbed on clays in the ocean. This will serve to improve our understanding on how the boron composition of the ocean has changed since the early Cretaceous and, in turn, help to determine ancient atmospheric CO₂ concentrations from the boron isotope proxy over the same time.
