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 Earth¹s 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 College 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 Massachusetts¼ North Shore, Rhode Island, Ontario, the
Midwest, Ireland, 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 spring I am teaching
Historical Geology and Physical Geology and am involved in research in New
England, New York, Ireland, Arkansas, and Virginia.
