My research is focused on providing a quantitative understanding of geomorphic processes, with particular emphasis on slope behaviour. My main areas of application investigate the processes and mechanisms that operate in coastal environments and how they interact to shape landforms. I am particularly interested in rocky coast geomorphology, and the advances enabled through new techniques capable of quantifying complex processes. I have developed and applied approaches combining techniques such as digital photogrammetry, airborne and terrestrial laser scanning, continuous GPS survey and micro-environmental monitoring to produce data on the changes occurring in a variety of environments ranging from steep coastal cliffs to engineered embankments.
