Jozi K Pearson

About me:

My research interests are primarily in neotectonics and structural geology. I examine geomorphic expressions of tectonic processes, foreland basin deformation, and slip propagation controls on active faults. I am currently working on two projects: The surface slip controls and propagation of the Alpine Fault in New Zealand, and San Andreas Fault slip rates in the Cajon Pass, California.
