Research Professor of Isotope Geology, University of Portsmouth

I am a geologist who has used geochemical methods to determine the ages of rocks and minerals. I apply methods of mass spectrometry to geological and environmental topics to help study processes that makes the Earth the place it is. A lot of my work has been spent studying the origin of mountains, continents, and earth history.
