Biographical Information

I obtained my PhD in Statistics in 1971 from Imperial College, London after studying Mathematics at Cambridge University (BA 1966) and Statistics at University College London (MSc 1967). I became a Chartered Statistician in 1993. I lectured at Birkbeck College, London before coming to Sheffield in 1974.


Interests

My main research interests are in statistical and probabilistic modelling and inference, particularly in connection with extreme values and environmental issues, but I also work on problems in material science, remote sensing and other applications. I chaired the Royal Statistical Society's Environmental Statistics Study Group 1996-2000 and I act as one of the Society's media contacts on environmental matters.
