His research focuses on the application of stable- and radio-nuclides to problems in geosciences, including Quaternary landform evolution, cosmochronology, hydrology, and atmospheric processes. He specializes in developing novel measurement techniques for cosmogenic nuclides like Be-10 and Al-26. Recent publications highlight his work in sediment budgeting, glacial dynamics in the Himalayas, and erosion rate analysis using cosmogenic isotopes.
His professional affiliations include the American Geophysical Union, American Physical Society, Meteoritical Society, and Geological Society of America.
