Our research interests are the study of ocean biogeochemical cycles on regional to global scales and on timescales from months to centuries. We are particularly interested in investigating the cycles of carbon, oxygen and nitrogen as well as those of their isotopes.

The main goal is to gain a better understanding of the interactions between the physical, chemical and biological processes that control the distributions of these climatically important elements and how they change through time.

To reach this goal we use a broad palette of chemically and physically based methods, which range from model simulations, the interpretation of numerous observational data to the application of very precise and accurate methods to measure constituent and isotope concentrations.
