Graduate Students | Undergraduate StudentsClasses| | | | | | |

I am presently looking for motivated graduate and undergraduate students interested in working with me on their senior thesis, or Master’s thesis research.  Nearly all of my Master’s students pursue their degrees from the Geology Department, and they interact regularly with students in the Quaternary Sciences Program. Incoming graduate students receive two years of support: The first year is typically as a Teaching Assistant, and the second year as a Research Assistant through NSF and other external support.  As a Research Assistant, graduate students devote their time to their thesis project.  I also have funding through the Amino Acid Geochronology Lab and the Sedimentary Records of Environmental Change Lab to support student research.

I am currently recruiting new Master’s students to work on the following projects:

• Holocene paleoclimate, southern Alaska
• Holocene tephra stratigraphy, Cook Inlet region, Alaska
• Quaternary chronostratigraphy of the Mojave River basin

Please contact me or any of my graduate students for more information about the graduate program at Northern Arizona University, or about these projects.  NAU has a great deal to offer students interested in studying the Quaternary, and you will find that Flagstaff is a beautiful town.
