Devon Orme is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Stanford University. Her research focuses on sedimentary basins and the tectono-thermal history of orogenic systems. You can find out more about her at https://devonorme.com. As with many geologists, fieldwork is where my passion for studying Earth developed. In an undergraduate field methods course in the mountains of Big Sur, California, […]
Allie Baczynski is an organic geochemist interested in using the chemical signatures of biomarkers derived from ancient plants to reconstruct past landscapes and climate. She is currently a post-doctoral scholar at Penn State working to lower biomarker sample size requirements for isotope analysis. Today, the Bighorn Basin in north-central Wyoming is mostly badlands – dusty hills home to […]
Anaïs Fourny is a Ph.D. candidate at the Pacific Centre for Isotopic and Geochemical Research in the Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences of the University of British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada). Her research focuses on the radiogenic isotopic composition of the Kiglapait layered intrusion. When I arrived at UBC (Vancouver, Canada) in 2012, I […]
Fabiana Richter is a PhD student at the University of Rochester. You can stay up to date with her research here. If you have ever seen pictures of the natural wonders of Brazil, you probably have seen a picture of the Sugar Loaf in the Rio de Janeiro City. It turns out that hundreds of Sugar Loafs […]
Bethany Ladd was an MSc student working on the role dissolved gas pressure in geyser eruption with Dr. Cathy Ryan in Geoscience at the University of Calgary. They continue to work together unlocking the mysteries of dissolved groundwater gases with a number of applications. In Yellowstone, a visitor curious about geysers might read a sign […]
