What we study
Recent student projects in this lab have studied geology, examining the textures of high-pressure eclogite rocks in northern Alaska's Brooks Range and using uranium-lead dating of minerals to determine when they formed.

Current projects
Petrology and Age of Eclogites of the Southern Brooks Rage, Northern Alaska
The project examines two high‑pressure rock bodies in Alaska’s Brooks Range to learn when they formed. Students will study rock textures and use U‑Pb dating on zircon, rutile, and titanite to determine ages between 130 and 170 million years.
