PhD projects
The following projects are available for self-funded students and/or via scholarship applications; related projects can be discussed:
- Volcanic fluid flow and release of greenhouse gases as drivers for the Paleocene-Eocene hyperthermals
- Fluid-rock interaction in the Cretaceous Atlantic rift and influence on rift lake chemistry, diagenesis, and sources of CO2
- Source to sink analysis of the SW Africa continental margin: provenance and subsidence/uplift history
- Disentangling climate and human signals in ancient Roman aqueducts
I earned a PhD in geology from the University of Bern (Switzerland), working on characterization of dolomite reservoirs in Oman. This was followed by postdoctoral research projects on Precambrian carbonates at MIT (USA) and the University of Johannesburg (South Africa). Most recently, I worked as a carbonate and subsurface geologist for Total SA in France. In this role, I was involved in reservoir studies, regional exploration studies and research applied to reservoir characterization. I worked on depositional systems from southern Africa to Mauritania, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and eastern Asia.
My background is in carbonate sedimentology and diagenesis, with integration of regional, outcrop, subsurface, and laboratory analytical data to characterize depositional systems and paleoclimates. Specific research areas are the geodynamic and sedimentary evolution of continental rifts, and the reconstruction of Precambrian environmental conditions via the sedimentary and geochemical study of carbonate and microbial depositional systems.
My current research interests are:
