• Geological And Laboratory Skills

Sedimentology – fluvial sedimentology, source-to-sink processes, sedimentary depositional facies, paleosols and clay mineralogy, core interpretation, palynology, ichnofacies.

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

Stable isotope geochemistry – oxygen, carbon and deuterium stable isotope analysis of pure carbonates, paleosol bulk carbonates and separated clay minerals.

Organic geochemistry – organic geochemistry for paleoenvironmental reconstructions, biomarkers – biolipids and geolipids, organic material diagenesis and stable isotope geochemistry of organic matter.

Analytical Toolbox – X-ray fluorescence (XRF – major and trace elements), Rock-Eval and X-ray diffraction (XRD – bulk rock and clay mineralogy), cathodoluminiscence, SIMS and MC-ICPMS, scanning electron microscope, clumped isotope analysis.
