My research focuses on archaeological geophysics, or in other words, the use of geophysical techniques to discover, map and characterise archaeological sites and landscapes in a non-destructive and minimally invasive way. In particular, I have been working on integrating soil/deposits charaterisation as part of archaeo-geophysical investigations to provide more detailed interpretations. I have been doing this using test-sites in Scotland during my PhD and while exploring sites in Greece and Cyprus as part of my postdoc work at GeoSat ReSeArch.
Besides archaeological investigations, my interests have also developed in humanitarian applications of geophysical prospection. These include the use of high-resolution geophysics to detect illegal infrastructure (something I did during my time in Vienna with the CTBTO) but also to find unmarked human burials and mass-graves.
