Welcome to my home page. The site is designed to give a brief overview of my background and projects which are based around the theme of remote sensing techniques to monitor coral reef systems. I have worked extensively in the Middle East, Indian, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and endeavour to fuse observations made from space, with ecological observations made on the ground, in order to unravel the dynamics of coral habitats at reef-scale. Presently, my research interests are in applied sedimentology, petroleum- and marine-geology. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about my work!
