Research Interests

Application of quantitative tectonic geomorphology and Neogene geology to understanding processes that modify the surface of the earth. Integration of surface and tectonic processes into a framework for predicting the origin and evolution of topography, geologic effects on local and global climate, and discovery of new geologic records of past tectonic and climate conditions.
