Research Statement

My major research interests centers on redox reconstruction (oxygenation) shifts in the Earth history to better understand underlying natural vs. anthropogenic forcing. I apply multiple redox proxies (from isotopes to trace metals) and data-model comparison methods to understand patterns of natural oxygenation forcing, and large scale oceanic responses (ocean circulation changes) to atmospheric circulations.
