Principal Lecturer, North East London Polytechnic. Environmental Reconstructions of N.W. Europe over the last 150 Million Years Over the last 10 years I have published palynological interpretations on many separate localities in S.W. Britain from Bovey Tracey, Launceston, Saint Agnes, Lundy and in early 1993 from S.W. Wales.
New work is in progress to analyse palynological data from Jurassic and Cretaceous localities.
All these results are being compared using the same vectors to achieve one continuous reconstruction of climate, ecology and evolution. In summer 1995 I was invited to participate in Ocean Drilling Program Leg 151, Arctic Ocean. I am proceeding with an analysis of palynological data from Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments. The work intends to contribute to both palaeoecological and biostratigraphic knowledge. The work has value to help reconstruct previous climatic changes.
