Dr David Bajnai

Hello, my name is Dr David Bajnai (pronounciation: ˈdaːvid ˈbɒjnɒi). I am a senior researcher in geochemistry at the University of Göttingen.

Research Interests

My research is centered on reconstructing environmental conditions, particularly changes in surface temperatures, throughout Earth’s history. By employing the dual clumped isotope (∆₄₇ and ∆₄₈) and triple oxygen isotope (∆¹⁷O) proxies in carbonates, I aim to provide accurate temperature reconstructions for archives where traditional proxies are inadequate. By disentangling biological and diagenetic signals, my research contributes to filling gaps in Earth’s climate record. You can find out more about my research themes here.
