Hello. I am a geomorphologist with research interests in glacial and fluvial geomorphology, planetary geology, paleoclimatology, and remote sensing. My research has focused upon reconstructing Quaternary glacial and fluvial environments in northern Portugal, northern Spain, and south-central Alaska using glacial and fluvial sedimentology, remote sensing, dendrochronology, and AMS dating.
