Research Interests

Our research capabilities span a variety of topics within the earth sciences. Some research is completed by individual faculty members, while other research is carried out collaboratively among several faculty members and with the help of graduate and undergraduate students. Common collaborations used to carry out our research program include the Department of Geography, School of Dentistry, Center for Earth and Environmental Science, and Center for Environmental Health.

Prospective students can contact individual faculty members for further information on their current research, collaborations, and whether he/she is interested in individually advising a research project.
