Prof. Kemp's work is focused on unravelling the climate history of the Earth through analysis of the sedimentary record. He and his research group at CUG use tools such as geochemistry, sedimentology and numerical modelling to understand the causes, consequences and timescales of past environmental change, and how these changes are preserved in the sedimentary record. Prof. Kemp has published >100 SCI papers, including in Nature, Nature Communications, PNAS and Geology. Since 2018, Prof. Kemp has worked full-time at CUG Wuhan as a Professor and doctoral supervisor.
