Position

Research Scientist CEA

Research interests

Environmental magnetism applied to:

- reconstructions of the past variability in the deep water masses, interhemispheric (and high/low latitudes) comparisons

- reconstructions of the past changes in the main rivers sedimentary discharges and run-off (precipitation on land, monsoon at low latitudes , links with high latitude climate)

- characterization of the metallic pollution in the Seine river

Paleomagnetism:

- high resolution magnetostratigraphy from sediments (geomagnetic excursions and reversals)

- absolute intensity and directional studies from lavas (paleosecular variation, geomagnetic excursions and reversals)
