Technical Skills

• Fieldwork experience with the Marine and Environmental Geology Research Group.
• Preparation of sediment cores and samples for laboratory analysis.
• Sedimentological analysis and core description (grain size analysis, facies characterization, sedimentary structures, and depositional environment interpretation).
• Geochemical characterization of sediments (major and trace element analysis, climatic and paleoenvironmental proxies).
• Mineralogical and microfacies analysis, including XRD and thin section observations.
• XRF core scanning (Itrax Core Scanner): acquisition, calibration, and quantitative data processing for high-resolution sediment records.
• Application of multivariate statistical methods in sedimentology and geochemistry.
• Integration of sedimentological, geochemical, and geophysical datasets for paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic reconstructions.
• Construction of robust age–depth models for multiple sediment cores using OxCal software.
• Geomorphological mapping using GIS.
• Marine geophysical data processing and interpretation (including seismic reflection, sub-bottom profiling, and multibeam bathymetry).
