Two-dimensional numerical modeling of tectonic and metamorphic histories at active continental margins

Numerical Geodynamic Modeling of Continental Convergent Margins

Forward Modeling of Stratigraphic Sequences at Continental Margins

The goal of the Stratigraphy project of the STRATAFORM program is to understand the creation of the preserved stratigraphic record on continental shelves and slopes as the product of physical processes acting with spatial and temporal heterogeneities. I am using numerical models to provide insight into the formation and preservation of stratigraphic sequences at margins. My goal is to obtain a ...

Tectonic inheritance at a continental margin

GSA Today: v. 16, no. 2, doi: 10.1130/1052-5173(2006)016<4:TIAACM>2.0.CO;2 INTRODUCTION Forty years ago, the eastern margin of North America inspired Tuzo Wilson (1966) to ask, “Did the Atlantic close and then re-open?” The Wilson cycle of closing and opening of ocean basins incorporates the cyclic assembly and breakup of supercontinents. Alternate processes of extension and compression of cont...
