Long-term human–environment dynamics
My research connects ecological archives, archaeological evidence and spatial modelling to study how landscapes are reorganized by climate, hydrology, subsistence, infrastructure and institutions.
Egyptian coastal lakes
Long-term reconstruction of Lakes Manzala, Burullus and Mariut using sedimentary, palynological, diatom, geochemical and chronological archives, with emphasis on rates of change, historical ecological baselines and lagoon-catchment resilience.
Nile Delta resilience
Multi-site synthesis of palaeoenvironmental, archaeological and human-impact records to test asynchronous transitions, connectivity, resilience and institutional change across Predynastic and Dynastic Egypt.
Early farming in Lower Egypt
A multi-proxy framework distinguishing domesticate presence from increasing dependence on cultivation by integrating archaeobotany, pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs, zooarchaeology, hydrology and settlement evidence.
Western Norway
REVEALS-based multi-site reconstruction of Holocene vegetation, disturbance and agropastoral landscape development, integrated with demographic and climate/oceanographic proxies.
