Current Research Projects: Seafloor geohazards in deep-water frontier petroleum exploration areas, specifically in Flemish Pass, but more broadly on the eastern Canadian margin. Environmental response of the Labrador current over the past glacial cycle. Quaternary geological framework of the eastern Canadian margin. Professional activities / interests As an Adjunct Professor at Dalhousie University, I supervise honours and graduate students and visitors working on a range of marine sedimentation problems, largely funded by NSERC. I am a mentor of junior staff in marine geology research and publishing. I give general scientific advice on Canadian marine lands, relevant to earthquakes, tsunamis, cable routes, foundation conditions, sites for paleoceanographic research, submarine landslides, turbidity currents and other erosional currents, benthic habitat, neotectonics, hydrocarbon seeps, and sedimentology and provenance of hydrocarbon reservoirs. I edited the Quaternary chapter of the East Coast Offshore volume in the Geology of Canada series. I have worked for many years on the geology of Greece and co-authored the first book to provide a chronological synthesis of the geology of Greece. I was Editor of Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences (1992-1998) and co-Editor in Chief of Marine Geology (1998-2014).
