Geologist & palynologist with experience in palaeoclimatic reconstructions

Profile Summary

I am a geologist with considerable experience in palaeoclimatic reconstructions using palynology, elemental and isotope geochemistry. I currently work as a final year PhD student in palaeoclimate at the University of Exeter. I did a Master's in applied geology at the University of Pavia (Italy) and a Bsc in geological sciences. I can help you with statistical analysis (diversity indices, correspondence analysis, PCA, cluster analysis) on microfossil assemblages with R, as well as microscope identification of Palaeocene-Eocene pollen, spores and dinoflagellates. I published one research article in peer-reviewed journal, and one article currently in revision in Nature Communications.
