Bethany Ellis

PhD Scholar
Research School of Earth Sciences

Bethany's research involves creating a high-resolution reconstruction of tropical eastern Indian Ocean sea surface temperatures using both modern and fossil coral samples from Indonesia. These reconstructions will assist in understanding past changes to the Indian Ocean Dipole system and its evolution throughout the last millennium.

Research interests

  • Proxy reconstructions of the past climate and environmental changes, with a particular focus on marine environments
  • Indian Ocean Dipole variability during the Holocene
