Personal profile

Overview

As a geographer I find myself interested in several facets of physical and human geography, but I am particularly intrigued by the earth surface sciences sensu lato. Landforms and landscapes (geomorphology), soils capping them (pedology and soil science) and their interaction with water (hydrology) captivates me, and drives my research on soil erosion. 

My doctoral research revolves around gully erosion in India, advised by Dr Angela Harris, Professor Martin Evans and Dr Emma Shuttleworth. My work is primarily funded by the School of Environment, Education and Development (SEED), besides a number of external organisations and learned societies. I am affiliated to the Environmental Processes Research Group (EPRG) at the Department of Geography.
