Research

CREES (Coral Reef Environmental Earth Sciences/Carbonate Research for Earth Evolution Systems) is mainly targeting follow topics:

1. High-resolution climate/environmental reconstruction of palaeoenvironments using carbonates
2. Biomineralization and preservation of biogenic carbonates
3. Biogeochemical cycles and biological response on climate changes throughout the earth history

More specifically our on-going research projects are key worded bellow;

• Proxy developments (Sea surface temperature, salinity, precipitin, nutrient, pH, etc.)
• Global warming and ocean acidification
• Pliocene ENSO
• Earthquakes and tsunami
• Volcano and corals
• Nutrient dynamics
• Oman Corals
• Fresh water environments
• Marine pollution
• Coral in space
• Typhoon reconstruction
• Coral biomineralization
