Guy's current research is focussed on the Arctic, a region which is warming up to six times faster than anywhere else on the planet. Its glaciers are melting and retreating, contributing to global sea level rise and rapidly changing the hydrology and ecology of the region. Guy is particularly interested in the meltwater and sediment that drains from glaciated basins in the Svalbard region during the melt season, undertaking both fieldwork and remote sensing studies.
Guy teaches broadly across physical geography, in particular modules that include Geographical Information Systems, remote sensing and quantitative methods.
