Research interests

I worked for many years on Greenland problems, mainly dealing with the Greenland ice sheet, but I am now increasingly interested by problems of global glaciology. Perhaps I should say "re-interested" as I helped to prepare Fluctuations of Glaciers Volume III (1977) and I edited the proceedings of the Riederalp workshop on World Glacier Inventory (1980).

After arriving at the University of Manchester in 1994, I finished off several papers on Greenland glaciolog and then switched to global glaciology, including several papers on rising sea level from increased glacier melt.
