My research focus is on the evolution of mountain belts over a range of length scale from hundreds to tens of kilometers. I am especially interested in understanding the evolution of landscapes that result from the interaction of tectonic forces and surface processes.
The main methods I am using are low-temperature dating techniques such as fission-track analysis and U-Th/He dating applied to bedrock and sediments to quantify the thermal history of Earth's upper crust. These data are combined with other geo- and thermochronology data, structural measurements, geomorphology, sedimentology, geophysical data, and numerical modeling. I have been working in research projects located in India, central China, Myanmar, Argentina, western US, Alaska and the Canadian Cordillera. Currently I have active research projects in southeast Alaska, western Yukon and southern Alaska. Contact information:

News:
Sep 2018 - we are currently advertising to hire a postdoctoral scholar who will conduct methodological research in the Geo-and Thermochronology lab. More information can be found here.
Sep 2018 - Will Matthews and myself presenting at the International Conference on Thermochronology in Quedlinburg, Germany.
Sep 2018 - Good by Sedigheh - due to the current political situation she had to leave earlier than planned. However, she got her analyses done. We wish you all the best for your research.
June 2018 - Welcome to Sedigheh Khoda Parast who is visiting the thermochronology lab for 6 month. Sedigheh will conduct apatite and zircon U-Th/He dating on samples from the Central Iranian Plateau, which is part of her PhD thesis.
April 2018 - Congratulations to Sonia Sanchez Lohff who successfully defended her M.Sc. thesis.
