Biography

I am the Director of the Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre and a Professor of Isotope Geosciences. My research group includes post-doctoral researchers, PhD students and skilled technical staff, we combine isotope geochemistry with field and other laboratory techniques to address major unanswered questions in geoscience. I lead the SUERC Noble Gas Laboratory where we develop new mass spectrometers and use them for new applications. The laboratory hosts visiting international researchers for training in noble gas isotope analysis and data modelling.

Research interests

I am an isotope geochemist specialising in the analysis of isotopic composition of trace gases in fluids, minerals and rocks. My research interests focus on:

The differentiation history of the Earth, in particular the origin and evolution of primordial volatiles in the deep mantle and the generation of the atmosphere.
Tracing the source and the interaction history of natural gases, and developing techniques for monitoring how natural and anthropogenic CO₂ is stored underground.
Using the trace amounts of hydrothermal fluids preserved in ancient ore minerals to determine the source of heat and metals in deposits of technology-critical metals.
Determining the tectonic and climatic controls on erosion and long-term landscape change using low temperature thermochronometers - apatite and zircon (U+Th)/He dating.
Using cosmogenic ³He and ²¹Ne in Earth and Moon rocks to understand rates of surface process.
