Biography

I am a first year PhD student working in the Palaeo Environments, Ice Sheets and Climate Change team at BAS, and at the Scott Polar Research Institute, University of Cambridge. My research reconstructs the movement of water beneath late Quaternary ice sheets using marine geophysical methods.
