About This Project

My research will focus on archaeological data from sites on the coast of Maine and on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. By examining the composition of shells, I hope to discover how variations in stable isotopic and trace elemental composition in the archaeological shells can be used to reconstruct the past environmental conditions of the Gulf of Maine.
