Research Interests

My primary research interest is modern (<100 years) continental-margin sedimentation, focusing on how the relationship between sediment deposition and accumulation leads to the formation and preservation of sedimentary strata in the geological record.  I am particularly interested in understanding the transport, deposition, and burial of fluvial sediment in estuaries and the coastal ocean, which is essential for understanding the dynamics and fate of particle-reactive substances (e.g., organic matter and pollutants) in aquatic environments.  My research also involved interdisciplinary projects that investigate the relationships and potential feedbacks between sediment and other ecosystem processes.
