I currently have projects across the Himalaya (metamorphism and tectonics), and in southern Argentina (paleoclimate and paleoecology). There are additional opportunities to work on trace element and isotopic zoning in metamorphic minerals, tectonics in the Alps and Scandinavian Caledonides, and trace elements in vertebrate fossils. Research Interests and Expertise Development and use of geochemical techniques to investigate metamorphism, orogenesis, paleoecology, and paleoclimate, including major elements, trace elements, stable isotopes, and radiogenic isotopes. Chemical and isotopic analysis of metamorphic minerals. Climatic and physiological analysis of organic phosphates. Electron microprobe, ion microprobe, stable isotope, and ICP-MS analysis; geochronology; thermodynamics, kinetics and phase equilibria.
