Colin's homepage
I have recently moved to NASA Ames Research Center as a NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellow with Kevin Zahnle.
I recently completed my PhD following a studentship in the Earth System Modelling Group in the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia. This was supervised by Prof. Tim Lenton and Prof. Andy Watson FRS.
I am interested in coupled biogeochemical modelling of life and the environment. My research focuses on the Great Oxidation: the rise of oxygen from a trace to major atmospheric constituent 2.4 billion years ago. I have proposed that this can be understood as a bistability in oxygen levels. I’m also doing some simple climate modelling work to look at the link between this and the Palaeoproterozoic snowball Earth glaciations.
