Biography

I am a retired Oceanographer who studied the history of the Earth Climate as recorded in the marine sediment record. I have published over 150 articles addressing climate change, sediment distributions and mathematical and statistical methods for data analysis of time series from geologic records and multivariate chemistry and micropaleontologic data set
