Research Interest 1
I am a marine biogeochemist. I am particularly interested in studying deep sea ecosystems. I use a biochemical approach (lipid biomarkers and stable isotope analysis) to improve our understanding of benthic faunal biochemistry and the quality of food (organic matter) in the water column and deep sea sediments. I am also interested in man's impact on the environment and I use geochemical and isotopic proxies in the study of climate change and land use change in lake and marine sediments.
