Research Interests

Analytical / Development of geochemical tools for Paleoceanography:

  • Proxy development in marine carbonates (foraminifera, corals, coralline algae)
  • Analytical methods for micro-analyses
  • Automation methods for boron purification and analysis
  • Standardization of protocols for B-isotope/pH and atmospheric CO2 reconstructions 

Biochemistry:

  • Biomineralization of corals, with focus on mechanisms of [H+] modulation and response to ocean acidification, temperature and nutrient loading
  • Environmental thresholds for cold water coral proliferation

Paleo reconstructions:

  • Ultra-high resolution seawater variability and coral bleaching evidence through time from cultured to fossil tropical corals
  • Common Era research: Arctic ocean acidification, freshwater input and temperature change with the use of coralline algal chemistry
  • Quaternary research: Reconstruction of surface-to-deep seawater pH, nutrient and carbonate ion concentrations using cold-water corals and foraminifera
  • Cenozoic research: Reconstruction of Paleogene atmospheric CO 2 , seawater temperature and salinity, climate sensitivity, and carbon cycle dynamics based on boron isotopes and trace elements in calcitic foraminifera                                                                                                                       

Community-wide workshop series 

Leading PAGES workshop series on:

Foraminiferal B isotopes-pH/CO2 reconstructions through Phanerozoic

(co-organizers: M. Henehan (GFZ Potsdam), T. Chalk (CEREGE), T. Babila (Southampton), M. Raitzsch (AWI))
