Researcher interests: Experimental studies on stable isotopes and trace element in live foraminifera and corals in order to develop new paleoceanographic proxies. Biomineralization mechanisms, internal carbon cycling and stable isotope fractionations in symbiotic associations (foraminifera and corals). Carbon isotopic fractionation and carbon limitation in algae during photosynthesis. Nutrient fluxes between coral reefs and the open ocean.
