I combine field work with a range of laboratory methods to address 'big picture' geological problems. My greatest passion is relating magmatism to tectonics. However, I study any kind of rock, mineral ...

But how they formed is a tougher question. A new study from the University of British Columbia reveals that magmatism of Earth’s current crust’s precursor formed three rocks—tonalite ...

Tectonics and sedimentation of forearc, fold-thrust, and strike-slip orogens Physical sedimentology and petrology of clastic deposystems, including detrital geochronologic studies to evaluate sediment ...

Taking the first look at the samples, geologists from Hong Kong University found that the Chang'e 6 landing site at the South ...

The discussions of phase diagrams, connections between igneous and metamorphic rock suites, and convergent margin magmatism have also been expanded. There is a new glossary of terms, updated ...

Cratons are fascinating yet enigmatic geological formations. Known to be relatively stable portions of the Earth's ...

Recent projects - characterizing the glass (Trintite) produced during the first atomic bomb test; determining the concentration of Br in geological and biological materials; petrology and geochemistry ...

Nov. 4, 2024 — A new study details how climate change transforms coastal wetlands in North Carolina from forest to marshland or even open water, and how satellite imagery may help better direct ...
