I am an environmental
geoscientist who uses sediment records that have accumulated at the bottom of
lakes and estuaries to reconstruct past environmental conditions. My work fits into two neat categories
in this broad discipline. First, I
am active and successfully published as a paleoclimatologist. In this work, I reconstruct climate
variability at high resolution so that we can understand Earthıs climate system
well enough to possibly be able to predict future changes. The other arm of my research involves
using sediment records to reconstruct pollution and human influence on natural
water bodies. This work includes
metals pollution, which is commonly found in industrial areas of the North
Shore, as well as eutrophication that can occur as humans overload lakes with
nutrients. I currently have
students at Salem State working on projects in both of these subdisciplines.
I have been a member of
the faculty in the Geological Sciences Department at Salem State University
since 2006. I earned my PhD at the
University of Rhode Island's Graduate School of Oceanography and my BS from
Bates College. I am currently
involved in geologic research on Massachusettsı North Shore, Maine, Rhode
Island, Ontario, the Midwest, Iceland, and Chesapeake Bay. Students from Salem State are involved
in most of these projects, and I am always looking for additional students to
join our lakes research group.
This summer I am teaching Physical Geology and am involved in research
in New England and Virginia.
