David Thornalley
Professor of Ocean and Climate Science, UCL
I am an ocean and climate scientist, specializing in paleoceanography. The central focus of my research is investigating the ocean and its role in the climate system, to allow us to improve predictions of future climate change and take the necessary steps to protect our environment. I am interested in understanding the causes, mechanisms and impacts of climate change on decadal to millennial timescales. I use a range of sedimentary and geochemical proxies in marine sediment cores, with a particular emphasis on reconstructing recent changes in the circulation of the North Atlantic.
