Max is a PhD student in the Department of Geography, Environment and Society at the University of Minnesota. His research focuses on dendrochronology and paleoclimatology. He and his colleagues recently published a paper in Geology that can be found here. You can read more about his research here. Some 12,000 years ago, the Emerald Isle was […]
The capital of England might not seem as geologically significant as the Grand Canyon due to their urban infrastructure, but with all the geological walks put together by the University College London (UCL) and all the geodiversity protection organizations, it shows that “London has a very rich and varied geology in the built environment, allowing […]
The last bit I wrote about the Anthropocene was one of skepticism and incredulity. The idea that the past 200 (or even 2 million) years of our genus would amount to anything more than a few plastiglomerate horizons in the geologic record seems to me exaggerative and inflammatory. There are others in the Earth science community […]
Impressive rock exposures and magnificent landscape in your study area are nice but having them reveal unique regional tectonic events is exciting and worth working hard for (Fig. 1). The easternmost part of the Australian continent consists of a Late Palaeozoic to Early Mesozoic orogenic belt that is tightly curved into an omega shaped oroclinal […]
