​We study how modern and ancient sedimentary environments evolve(d) in response to external forces such as climate, tectonics, sea level change, and human impacts.

Highlights from our lab:

We have a new paper out in Earth and Planetary Science Letters about the the role of sea level rise on reversal of sand supply in estuarine environments such as San Francisco Bay. This work was done in collaboration with the USGS and funded by the California State Coastal Conservancy to investigate the sustainability of sand mining is SF Bay.
