Dr Vassil Karloukovski

My research interests include application of palaeomagnetic techniques to problem solving in a) stratigraphic and tectonic problems, b) archaeomagnetic dating and c) magnetic fabric studies of Bulgarian rocks. I have a broad interest in cutting-edge studies of the fundamental principles of environmental magnetism, for purposes of retrieving  palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental information from the magnetic records of soils and sediments. 

I am also responsible for the day to day running of the CEMP laboratory, and in particular the MPMS.

Past projects which i have been involved in are a) characterisation of superparamagnetic haematite and goethite as a marker for desert dust input into the North Atlantic, b) magnetostratigraphic dating of hominid remains in Zambia, c) a variety of commercial archaeomagnetic dating projects in the UK.
