Research
- Antarctic climate and ice history: provenance of iceberg-rafted debris and glacially eroded sediment; ice sheet instability under past warm climates; sea level change; Antarctic subglacial geology.
- Ocean drilling: the use of downhole geophysical logs and physical properties of marine sediment cores for insight into paleoceanography, stratigraphy, and cyclicity; linking borehole data to seismic profiles; downhole magnetic logging for magnetostratigraphy.
- Warm climates of the Cretaceous and Eocene: ocean anoxic events; chert formation; long-term climate change.
