Sedimentology – fluvial and shallow marine sedimentology, source-to-sink processes, depositional facies, palynology, ichnofacies, core interpretation, paleosols and clay minerals

Paleoclimatology – mass-extinction events, Cenozoic hyperthermal events (PETM, EECO, MECO), stable isotopes and clay mineralogy as paleoclimatic indicators

Subsurface geology – wireline log interpretation and sub-stratigraphic correlation, seismic dataset interpretation, reservoir modeling and volume estimation

Stable isotope geochemistry – oxygen, carbon and deuterium stable isotope analysis of pure carbonates, paleosol bulk carbonates and clay minerals (primarily smectite)

Organic geochemistry – organic material diagenesis and stable isotope geochemistry of organic matter preserved in paleosols for paleoclimate inferences

Geochronology and sample preparation – panning, mineral picking and epoxy mount preparation, SIMS U-Pb dating of zircon, in-situ U-Pb analysis of carbonates using LAICP-MS, column chemistry for TIMS analysis
