Research interests in continental tectonics, crustal evolution, basin formation and resources. Current projects include:
Participation in a multinational, geophysical and geological investigation of the driving mechanism of cratonic basins, based on the Parnaiba basin of Brazil.
Tectonic and geomorphic evolution of Central Africa; the lithospheric, crustal and tectonostratigraphic development of the complex of Proterozoic basins and orogenic belts, and Phanerozoic Permo-Triassic to Neogene rifting and high plateau formation.
Tectonic evolution of the Carboniferous basins of Northern England and the Southern North Sea based around the Integration of 2 and 3D seismic data and basin modeling techniques.
