About David Paul Gillikin

My research focus involves the validation of bivalve shell geochemistry as a proxy of environmental and climate change. My interests are broad and have included biogeochemistry and ecophysiology. I have a specific interest in bridging disciplines, including the chemical, biological and geological sciences. My current projects include marine bivalve shell geochemistry, freshwater mussel shell geochemistry, speleothem geochemistry, lake core records, aquatic (freshwater, estuarine, and marine) biogeochemistry, and chemical dendrochronology.
