Dr Aaron Potito

PhD., MA, BA

 
researcher
 

Biography

My research focuses on the use of lake sedimentary records, especially chironomid sub-fossils, to reconstruct past environments. Current research interests include temperature reconstruction of late Pleistocene and Holocene climates, assessment of historic and pre-historic human impacts on lake systems, and impacts of recent climate change on lake ecosystems.

Research Interests


  • Palaeoclimatology and palaeolimnology
  • Biogeography
  • Chironomids
  • Dendroecology and dendroclimatology
  • Climate change
