I'm a curious person. And nothing pleases me more than contributing to our collective understanding of the world around us. As such, I'm always interested in solving puzzles presented by the natural world. Here are a few of the research topics I'm working on at present.
A.I. to Correlate Tephra Chemistries
A.I. to Correlate Tephra Chemistries
Current status: Initial manuscript published, others in prep.
App under development (see Tools page)
Exploration of new applications, including statistically separating "undifferentiable" eruptions underway
Quantifying Uncertainty in Volcanic Erupted Volume
Quantifying Uncertainty in Volcanic Erupted Volume
Current status: Open source (R language) tool under development
Exploration, development, and evaluation of a novel volume estimation method underway
Understanding the White River Ash
Understanding the White River Ash
Current status: Fieldwork completed (Summer 2019) in Yukon and Alaska. Over 100 samples collected to quantify deposit age, composition, and thickness
Geochemical analysis and construction of updated isopach (thickness) maps for eastern and northern lobes underway
Unified Chronologies using Tephra Marker Horizons
Unified Chronologies using Tephra Marker Horizons
Current status: Data collection, rationalization, and methodology development.
This is both a correlation and age modelling task, and links closely to the "A.I. to correlate tephra chemistries" project
North Saskatchewan River in the Little Ice Age
North Saskatchewan River in the Little Ice Age
Current status: Radiocarbon samples analyzed. Manuscript "in prep."
Reconstructing Global Biomes since the LGM
Reconstructing Global Biomes since the LGM
Current status: Data collection, rationalization, and methodology development
