Fire Island New York, before and after Hurricane Sandy; a dramatic example of coastal geomorphic change.
I'm a geomorphologist, I study landforms and the processes that create them. I've worked on a variety of geomorphological research projects, but in recent years my focus has been:
* Coastal Geomorphology
* Hurricane Storm Surge Sedimentation
* Sedimentation on Coastal Marshes
* Paleotempestology (study of ancient storms) in Texas, Louisiana and Thailand
* Tropical Cyclone Variability in Thailand in Response to Holocene Climate Changes
I grew up in England and did my undergraduate degree at the University of Plymouth in southwest England, my Master's degree at the University of British Columbia and my PhD at Simon Fraser University, both in Vancouver, Canada.
I'm a strong believer in the value of fieldwork and I encourage students to incorporate fieldwork into their thesis research. I also encourage students to participate in professional aspects of their education - this includes presenting their work at regional, national and international conferences and co-authoring journal articles.
