Expertise

My research focuses on the sedimentology and stratigraphy of terrestrial and shallow marine clastic successions. My projects have largely focused on Late Paleozoic rocks in the Maritimes Basin (Atlantic Canada), Appalachian Basin (eastern USA), Anadarko Basin (Texas and Oklahoma), and numerous basins in eastern Australia.

My research interests focus on the sedimentology and stratigraphy of shallow marine-terrestrial clastic systems.  I focus largely on Late Paleozoic strata and have worked in the Maritimes Basin (Atlantic Canada), Appalachian Basin (eastern USA), Anadarko Basin (Texas and Oklahoma), and numerous depocenters in eastern Australia.  More recently, I have started working on the sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy of Madison Group (Mississippian) carbonates in SW Montana.
