His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Sea level, Sediment, Shore and Clastic rock. His Oceanography research includes themes of Elevation and Surge. His Sea level study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Coastal flood, Flood myth, Tidal range and Mangrove.
His work investigates the relationship between Sediment and topics such as Physical geography that intersect with problems in Holocene, Barrier island and Glacial period. His Shore research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary rock, Earth science and Swash. His research integrates issues of Overwash and Geomorphology in his study of Paleontology.
His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Geomorphology, Sediment, Storm and Sea level. His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climatology and Surge. His Geomorphology research integrates issues from Overwash and Clastic rock.
In general Sediment, his work in Deposition is often linked to Paraglacial and Marine transgression linking many areas of study. He has researched Storm in several fields, including Hydrology and Sand dune stabilization. The concepts of his Shore study are interwoven with issues in Sedimentary rock and Sorting.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Delta, Geomorphology, Provenance, Holocene and Northern ireland. His research on Geomorphology focuses in particular on Sediment. His work on Sediment transport as part of general Sediment study is frequently linked to Debris flow, Flow conditions and Process, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His Holocene research includes elements of Compositional data, Sedimentary rock, Clastic rock, Partial least squares regression and Mineralogy. His Compositional data research incorporates elements of Probability density function, Estuary, Hydrology, Multivariate statistics and Physical geography. His Tide gauge study, which is part of a larger body of work in Oceanography, is frequently linked to Harbour, bridging the gap between disciplines.
