Overview
I am a physical geographer interested in the evolution of coasts and catchments through both in the past and into the future. I use a combination of palaeo-environmental reconstruction techniques, historic data, geochronology and an understanding of geomorphology to reconstruct past coastal systems and predict how they may change under a changing climate. I am also interested in improving our understanding of coastal risk by enhancing the record of past storms.
Interests include;
- Coastal and catchment geomorphology
- Palaeo-environmental reconstruction
- Geochronology
- Coastal and catchment management
- Flood risk
- Environmental contamination
