Research Interests

My research interests cover a wide range of disciplines including sedimentology, biostratigtraphy but specially paleolimnology, micropaleontology and paleo-environmental reconstructions involving Human activity. In the current Ph.D. project I am searching for a explanation between the relationship of climate and human occupation, depopulation and resettlements since the last 50,000 years.
