Research
Interdisciplinary research across Earth systems, deep Earth dynamics, climate archives, geochemistry, geodesy, seismology, petrology, and environmental processes.
Tracking Earth’s changing surface through GRACE and remote sensing.
Using non-traditional isotopes to track seawater chemistry, estuarine processes, carbonate formation, and anthropogenic metal transport.
How the mantle shapes the Earth’s surface, causing plate movements, mountains and earthquakes.
Imaging the Earth’s interior with seismic waves and characterizing the sources that generate them.
Simulating the dynamo that generates planetary magnetic fields, from Earth’s core to the outer solar system.
Tracing crustal recycling, impact processes, groundwater contamination, and weathering through Sr and metal isotope geochemistry.
Developing carbonate isotope tools to reconstruct paleotemperatures, water cycles, groundwater processes, and atmospheric change.
Tracing the growth and metamorphism of Earth’s earliest continental crust, and the mineral resources it left behind.
