Tina van de Flierdt is a professor at Imperial College London, where she co-leads the MAGIC isotope facility. Her background is in geology and her research spans a variety of fields from understanding chemical cycles of trace elements and pollutants in the ocean, over reconstructions of past ocean circulation patterns, to the history of continental ice sheets and their vulnerability to future climate change. She loves going to sea and started working on the enigmatic Antarctic continent and its dynamic ice cover when she was a postdoctoral fellow at LDEO many years ago.
