Research Fellow - Research School of Earth Sciences, Australian National University (2001 - 2005) Research interests In situ produced Terrestrial Cosmogenic Nuclides (TCN) and their application to problems in Quaternary dating, geomorphology and glaciology.
Quantifying the effects of glaciers and ice sheets on landscape evolution.
Reconstructing the deglaciation of the East Antarctic ice sheet.
Measurement of erosion rates with cosmogenic isotopes, to study long-term landscape evolution, soil development and transport, and the effects of neotectonics and climate change.
My work is largely interdisciplinary and includes collaboration with scientists in geomorphology, Quaternary geology, glaciology, nuclear physics and geochemistry. Current research Constraining the deglaciation history of Scotland.
Deciphering the glacial history of East Antarctica using nunataks as indicators of ice sheet dynamics.
Quantifying glacial erosion at glacier and ice sheet scales in Scandinavia and Canada using cosmogenic nuclide techniques.
Constraining the deglaciation history of the Fennoscandian, British and Cordilleran ice sheet.
Cosmogenic nuclide production rate systematics.
