Stratigraphy and Geochemistry
Stratigraphy and geochemistry provide an interpreted approach that investigates the physical, chemical, and biological attributes of Earth’s sedimentary record in order to decipher important events in our planet’s incredible 4.56 billion-year history.
Ongoing Research Projects (faculty)
- Cylostratigraphy, Astrochronology, and the Geologic Time Scale (Hinnov)
- Ocean-Atmosphere Oxygenation Across the Proterozoic-Paleozoic transition(Gilleaudeau)
- Devonian-Carboniferous Ocean Redox, Salinity, and Land Plant Evolution (Gilleaudeau, Ramirez)
- Metal Isotope Stratigraphy of Critical Transitions in Earth History (Gilleaudeau)
- Pliocene North Pacific Ocean Redox and Circulation (Gilleaudeau,Remirez)
- Effects of Sediment Mixing and Diagenesis on the Chemostratigraphy of Deep Sea Climate Records (Hupp)
- Stable Isotope Variability in the Northern California Current (Hupp)
- Development of Novel Trace Element Paleoproxies in Foraminifera (Hupp)
- Signals of Provenance & Paleoclimate in Appalachian Basin Mudrocks (Hupp)
