Associate professor at the Faculty of Petroleum and Natural Resources. Professional university lecturer with more than 27 years of experience. my field of interest is Micropaleontology (Ostracoda) and its implication in reconstructing the paleo-ecology and paleo-climate during the Quaternary Period. My post-doctoral researches have been carried out at Hamburg University – Germany, during which two new genera and seven new species of Ostracoda were erected and described for the first time from Yemen. Besides, some works were published on the climatic history and paleo-lakes of the south-western highlands of Yemen during the Holocene (12, 000 years).
