Current Research Activities

Biological Systems and Organisms

My research activities have focused on the use of recent geochemistry and geochronology for the retrospective analysis of harmful algal blooms (through the study of dinoflagellate cysts), heavy metal, and blue carbon fluxes in the sedimentary record of coastal environments and its relationship with climate variability and human activities
