I mostly work on the deglacial history of Narragansett Bay, so sediment deposited during the retreat of the last ice sheet ~18,000 years or so years ago (thats my dissertation). I also do a lot of work mapping modern depositional environments using side-scan sonar, and other tools (i.e. where is the sand, mud, gravel etc) in Estuaries, Coastal Ponds and the area from the beach out ~1 mile or so along the south shore of RI and Long Island
basically I get to play on a boat, or digging in the mud
