My area of expertise is
paleoecology. Specifically, I
use pollen, phytoliths,
and diatoms preserved
in sediments to reconstruct
past environments. My academic training is in
physical geography, biogeography,
and botany. I have analyzed sediment cores from
coastal lakes, estuaries,
and marshes from southwestern Louisiana to
Panama City, Florida.
