Mae Dr Paul Albert yn wyddonydd Daear ac yn Gymrawd Arweinwyr y Dyfodol (FLF) UKRI ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe.

Mae ei ymchwil yn arbenigo mewn ail-lunio hanesion echdoriad folcanig; gan bennu'n benodol darddle ac amseriad digwyddiadau cwymp lludw eang hynafol. Mae ei ymchwil FLF UKRI yn canolbwyntio ar gyfyngu ar dempo a maint folcanigrwydd arc ffrwydrol gan ddefnyddio haenau lludw a gedwir mewn archifau gwaddodol hir (e.e. dilyniannau gwaddodion morol a llyn) a hwyluso asesiadau o beryglon cwymp lludw hirdymor.

Cyn FLF UKRI, roedd ganddo Gymrodoriaeth Gyrfa Gynnar Ymddiriedolaeth Leverhulme ym Mhrifysgol Rhydychen (2015-2018), a fanteisiodd ar y cofnod unigryw o gwymp lludw folcanig a gedwir yn y gwaddodion sy'n cael eu farfio'n flynyddol a'u dyddio'n ddwys yn Llyn Suigetsu, Japan. Mae'r ymchwil hon wedi darparu mewnwelediad heb ei ail i dempo echdoriadau ffrwydrol hynafol mewn amryw o losgfynyddoedd yn Japan.

Cyn ei rolau Cymrodoriaeth, roedd ganddo swyddi PDRA ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe (2014-2015) a Phrifysgol Rhydychen (2013-2014). Canolbwyntiodd y swydd gyntaf honno ar Deffrocronoleg Holosen creiddiau iâ yr Ynys Las a nodi digwyddiadau cwymp lludw sy'n gysylltiedig ag echdoriadau mawr sy'n ffurfio callorau.

Cwblhaodd ei ddoethuriaeth mewn Daeareg ym Mhrifysgol y Royal Holloway Llundain (RHUL; 2008-2012); roedd yr ymchwil hon yn allweddol wrth fireinio Teffrocronoleg Canol Rhanbarth Môr y Canoldir. Manteisiodd yr ymchwil hon ar fysbrintio geocemegol manwl o gyfansoddiadau gwydr folcanig (toddiant) wedi'u hechdorri yng ngwahanol losgfynyddoedd y rhanbarth er mwyn mesur yn well ddigwyddiadau echdorri a'r gwasgariadau lludw cysylltiedig. Cyn ei ddoethuriaeth, cwblhaodd MSc mewn Gwyddoniaeth Gwaternaidd yn RHUL (2007) a BSc mewn Daearyddiaeth ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe (2005).

GEG133 Natural Hazards and Society

This module investigates hazardous aspects of Earth¿s natural environment and how society relates to them. Introductory principles include the definition of natural hazard, disaster, risk and loss, and approaches to reducing risk and managing disasters. Major types of natural hazard are studied in order to understand how they operate, where, and how frequently they are likely to occur. Hazardous consequences are explored, as well as how society can respond to hazardous events. Key aspects include discussion of primary and secondary hazards, prediction, forecasting and monitoring of hazards, and understanding how their harmful effects can be minimised. Natural hazards considered during this module include volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, wildfires, landslides, extreme weather events, flooding, avalanches and Mega Hazards. Lecture material considers general principles as well as case studies. The module is compulsory for students taking BSc Environmental Geoscience.
GEG363 Volcanology

In this module, students will study magmatic and volcanic processes, from source to surface. We will follow the journey of magma, from its production inside the Earth, to eruption at the surface through volcanoes, and injection of volcanic ash and gases into the atmosphere. The module will cover magma generation, storage and evolution, ascent and eruption. Students will gain an understanding of processes underpinning eruptive styles and interpretation of these processes from the volcanic products. The module also explores how volcanism affects our planet¿s climate. Delivery of the module will include a combination of on-campus sessions and a field course to the Eifel Volcanic Field (Germany). The field course will enable in-situ study of diverse volcanic landforms and products, formed via a wide range of eruptive styles, including effusive and explosive eruptions. During the field course, students will study various aspects of volcanic geology, including learning how to observe, measure and interpret volcanic rocks and deposits. The module has a strong geological focus, and therefore a keen interest in geology and some previous knowledge of geology is highly recommended.
GEGM21 Climate Change - Past, Present and Future

This module will examine the Earth's climate system, and the principal natural and anthropogenic forcing mechanisms controlling it. The detection and nature of recent environmental changes will be discussed within the context of the Earth's climate history . The tools and methods used to measure, predict and study climate changes will be introduced. This will include the fundamental structure of General Circulation Models and how these techniques may be employed in conjunction with instrumental and proxy data to study the climate of the past and to reduce uncertainty in future climate change projections.

Ymchwil

Mae ei ymchwil yn cyfuno gwaith maes, sy'n archwilio olyniaethau pyroclastig sy'n agos at y tarddle mewn amryw o losgfynyddoedd, gydag ymchwiliadau teffra manwl mewn labordy o ddilyniannau gwaddodion, gyda'r olaf yn cynnwys echdynnu haenau lludw microsgopig, o’r enw gryptoteffra.

Er mwyn nodi'n gywir darddle folcanig haenau lludw sydd wedi teithio yn bell a gedwir mewn olyniaethau gwaddodion, ac integreiddio'r rhain yn llwyddiannus i gofnod echdoriadau hysbys llosgfynydd, mae ei ymchwil yn gyfan gwbl seiliedig ar fysbrintio geocemegol manwl o'r gwydr folcanig sydd wedi echdorri. Yn ffodus, mae'r gydran gwydr folcanig yn dominyddu yn y dyddodion pyroclastig yn y llosgfynydd a'r haen lludw distal ac, yn hollbwysig, mae llofnod elfennau mawr a hybrin y gwydr hwn yn aml yn unigryw i losgfynydd unigol. Pennir llofnod elfennau mawr a hybrin y gwydr folcanig sy'n ganolog i'w ymchwil gan ddadansoddiad microstiliwr electron (EMP) a sbectrometreg màs plasma wedi'i pharu'n anwythol ag abladiad Laser (ALl-ICP-MS), yn y drefn honno.

Yn dilyn ymlaen o’i waith ymchwil doethurol, mae Paul yn parhau i gymryd rhan weithredol mewn ymchwil Deffrocronolegol yng nghanol rhanbarth Môr y Canoldir ac, yn arbennig, yn ail-greu hanesion echdoriadau llosgfynyddoedd actif y rhanbarth (e.e. Campi Flegrei, Vesuvius, Mynydd Etna a’r Ynysoedd Aeolaidd).

Gyda'i ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar y cofnodion cwymp lludw folcanig a gedwir mewn archifau palaeohinsawdd hir, a'i ddiddordeb brwd mewn deall amrywioldeb yn yr hinsawdd Cwaternaidd, mae'n cydweithio'n helaeth â phalaeohinsoddegwyr i ddatblygu fframweithiau Teffrocronolegol annibynnol sy'n gallu asesu amseriad ac amrywioldeb gofodol y newid yn yr hinsawdd yn y gorffennol ledled Ewrop, Dwyrain Asia ac, yn fwy diweddar, Antarctica.
