Research

Research interests

I am a glacial geologist interested in the interaction between glaciers and climate over multiple timescales. I specialise in ice-sheet and glacier reconstruction in temperate and high latitudes. I use a combination of field studies, chronostratigraphical methods (especially cosmogenic nuclide dating), remotely sensed data sets and numerical modelling to quantify ice-sheet and ice-shelf history. I am particularly interested in glacial processes at the ice-bed interface, and use detailed sedimentological analyses and micromorphology to analyse processes of entrainment, deposition and deformation. 

My current research interests are orientated towards the Antarctic Peninsula, the Patagonian Ice Sheet and the last British-Irish Ice Sheet. Highlights from this research have included:

  • Revised reconstruction of Middle Pleistocene and Devensian British and Fennoscandian ice sheet interactions;
  • Analysis of past, present and future ice-shelf and glacier change in the northern Antarctic Peninsula and in Patagonia using field studies;
  • Satellite image analysis and numerical modelling;
  • Analysis of glacial processes on James Ross Island, northern Antarctic Peninsula;
  • Reconstructions of Last Glacial Maximum ice stream dynamics on the northern Antarctic Peninsula.

I held a Scientific Committee for Antarctic Research (SCAR) Visiting Fellowship to visit Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand for six months in 2013.
