My research focuses on (1) the integrated application of thermochronology and geochronology to tectonic and geological problems to better understand the temporal and thermal aspects of tectonic, petrologic, stratigraphic, and geomorphologic processes. In particular, I am interested in combining structural geology with low-temperature thermochronology to elucidate the spatial and temporal distribution of deformation in intra-continental rifting, orogen-parallel extension, and continental rupture leading to seafloor spreading as well as collisional tectonics (e.g., coupling of fold-and-thrust sheet and foreland basin dynamics). (2) Source-to-sink and detrital geo- and thermochronometry applications. Quantification of hinterland exhumation in light of the interplay between climate and tectonics and the correlation with basin stratigraphy both in recent and deep-time settings. (3) Geo- and Thermochronometry technique development, calibration, and bench marking, with special emphasis on development of new thermochronmeters (e.g., monazite, rutile, and magnetite) and novel applications (e.g., geoarcheology, isotopic provenance, etc.)
