Mark Chapman

Mark Chapman is Associate Professor in the School of Environmental Sciences and Geosciences member at University of East Anglia. His research reconstructs ocean-climate interactions using microfossil records and geochemical proxies.

Research focuses on:

• North Atlantic circulation dynamics
• Volcanic marker horizons for stratigraphic correlation
• Southern Ocean frontal systems
• Diatom responses to climate change

His publications establish tephrostratigraphic frameworks for paleoclimate studies and analyze physical controls on oceanic fronts, with techniques combining micropaleontology, isotope geochemistry, and statistical modeling.
