Tina van de Flierdt is Professor of Isotope Geochemistry and Head of the Department of Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College London. She holds a Diploma in Geology from the University of Bonn in Germany and a PhD in Natural Science from ETH Zurich in Switzerland. She completed a postdoctoral fellowship and served as an Associate Research Scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University in the United States. She co-leads the MAGIC isotope facility at Imperial College London.
Her research focuses on isotope geochemistry with applications to palaeoceanography, palaeoclimate, ocean circulation, chemical cycles of trace elements and pollutants, and the history and vulnerability of polar ice sheets, particularly the marine-terminating sectors of the Antarctic Ice Sheet during past warm periods. She has served as Co-Chief Scientist on the SWAIS2C project investigating the sensitivity of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Van de Flierdt was appointed Head of the Department of Earth Science and Engineering in August 2021.
Imperial College London leads record 228m sediment core retrieval under WAIS, revealing past ice retreats and future sea level risks.
