CURRENT PROJECTS

I and my research group have active projects in the western USA, Argentina and Chile

Projects

TANGO - TransAndean Great Orogeny (NSF-FRES)

This project seeks to understand the processes of crustal thickening and the interactions between the subducting slab, the mantle and the surface on orogenic processes in the Andes

TIMING OF COOLING AND EXHUMATION OF LARAMIDE UPLIFTS INFORMS MODELS OF FLAT-SLAB SUBDUCTION (NSF - Tectonics)

The primary objective of this project is to determine the timing of exhumation of basement uplifts of the Laramide region in order to inform tectonic and geodynamic models of flat-slab subduction

RAPID CLIMATE CHANGE DURING THE MIOCENE CLIMATE OPTIMUM: A Proxy-Model Comparison (NSF - P2C2)

This project involves the study of the Middle Miocene climatic optimum through the combination of paleoclimate proxy data and Earth system model simulations
