Our Research
The research of the Sedimentary Systems Group focuses on how sediments and sedimentary rocks record Earth-surface processes across a broad range of temporal and spatial scales. The ultimate goal is to discover how marine clastic sedimentary successions relate to past tectonic activity, climatic perturbations, sea-level changes, oceanic conditions, and intrinsic controls of the depositional system. We are aiming to analyze entire natural sediment-routing systems, including their terrestrial and submarine components, over geomorphologically significant time scales.
