Research interests:
- Stable isotopes in sedimentary environments (past and present) and their application to sedimentary ore deposits
- The fate of metals in the environment, and in the development of tropical soils
- Low temperature hydrothermal rock-water interactions at oceanic spreading ridges
- The influences and interactions with microbial activity and microbial byproducts with these rock-water interactions
Recent research projects:
- Analysis of copiapite samples from Devonian black shale outcrops.
- Sulfur Isotopic Budget of the Yaxcopoil-1 Core, Chicxulub Impact Crater and modeling of the sulfur isotopic fractionation at the K/T boundary
- Depositional environments, sedimentology and stratigraphy of the Santa Rosa Group, E–M Permian, Belize
- Effective determination of the critical components for Pb–Zn mineralization: Insights from the Santa Rosa Group, Belize, Central America
- Carbon-Sulfur relationships in the Manus Basin, Sites 1188 and 1189, ODP Leg 193, Papua New Guinea
