Research Interests

My research is focused on biogeochemical processes occurring in the surface ocean and lower atmosphere. Within this area, I currently have two main areas of interest: the marine iodine cycle, particularly the speciation of iodine compounds in seawater, and the chemical composition of marine atmospheric aerosol, including both trace metals and organic molecules. I use a range of different analytical chemistry techniques and have conducted fieldwork in the Arctic, the Antarctic and several places in between.
