Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after - Henry David Thoreau Research Interests  At the same time I continue working on the influence of climate variability and economic development on island and coastal surface and subterranean water bodies. See here for a short CV, see here for a search of my publications in Google Scholar, and here's my linkedin page.
