Key Research Interests

  • Uncertainty in data interpretation and visualization – current work: with psychologists on eye tracking interpretation of
    seismic image data, use of digital technologies and data framing; with industry on stochastic models, expert elicitation, data
    analysis and AI.
  • Energy policy, communication of geoscience related energy issues, environmental impacts of energy choices,
    perceptions of energy – current work through ClimateXChange: on shale gas perceptions, the use of precise language
    and terminology in communication of energy issues, life cycle analysis; and through an EU ERAl ERA NET project on CCS,
    just transition, perception of CCS.
  • Structural controls on fluid flow in the crust in relation to a wide range of challenges e.g. CCS, geothermal energy,
    mineralisation etc.
  • The use of photogrammetry in structural analysis with potential for AI.
  • Deformation partitioning in the crust including mechanical controls, and the use of raman spectroscopy to determine
    thermal maturity and deformation.
