Research Interests
My Research focuses on two main interests
1) Behaviour of Rare Earth Elements (REE) in Coastal Waters/Organic Waters
Based on a mesocosm experiment that investigates artificially induced spring blooms in natural North Sea coastal waters
Connection and possible reactions between REE and organic matter (dissolved and particulate)
2) Reconstruction of the Deep Circulation throughout the Pliocene/Miocene in the South Pacific
Identification of deep water masses and possible transport routes 8-3Ma before present as well as external influences based on Neodymium isotopes
Part of the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 383 - Dynamics of Pacific Antarctic Circumpolar Current (DYNAPACC) (joidesresolution.org/expedition/383/ )
