Research
The overarching aim of my research is to reconstruct past climate changes and better understand the mechanisms driving them. My main focus is on biogeochemical processes, their time scales in marine and lacustrine environments and the constraints they impose on the fluxes of particulate material in the atmosphere and oceans. I combine geologic, oceanographic and geochemical field and lab work, with emphasis on inorganic elemental concentrations and radiogenic isotope compositions in dust, seawater, marine particulates and sediment cores, particularly focused on modern and past processes in the Red Sea.
