Bobbie's research focuses on deformation of continental and oceanic lithosphere, and the relationship between magmatism and deformation. Our fearless leader's tremendous knowledge
of the geology in the Colorado River Extensional Corridor made this trip a
resounding success. |
|
|
Mike's research focuses on igneous processes and the tectonics of slow-spreading oceanic ridges. It took a week, but Bobbie finally
convinced Mike that we were looking at low-angle normal fault gouge and not
Noachian flood shale. Mike is the Captain of UW's Royal
British Navy. |

Graham is working on his Ph.D. with Prof. Cheadle. He's analyzing potential field and bathymetry data from the Southwest Indian Ridge. Graham is
second-in-command of UW's Royal
British Navy. His famous curry kept us all fueled up and ready to do some
geology. |

Kay is working on her Ph.D. with Prof. Cheadle. She studies upwelling and deformation in the mantle beneath mid-ocean ridges. The resident botanist was at it again, this
time collecting palo verde seeds. She strategically avoided the nasty cholla
seeds, unlike some people we
know. |

Craig is working on his Ph.D. with Prof. John, using thermochronometry and geochronology to investigate mid-ocean ridge accretion processes. Whatever you do, don't light a match when
Craig is nearby! Especially when he's been chowing down on Graham's curry. |

Lars is working on his Masters with Profs. John and Cheadle. He's studying detachment faulting at the Kane oceanic core complex on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This guy is always eager to get a close-up
look at the outcrop. Click here
to see for yourself. |

Elena's working on her Ph.D. with Prof. John. She studies strain localization in gabbroic rocks on Atlantis Bank, Southwest Indian Ridge. Between
the gourmet food in camp and the fabulous dance music in the car, we don't
know what we would have done on this trip without Elena! |

Dan's working on his Ph.D. with Prof. Art Snoke. His research focuses on continental accretion during the Paleoproterozoic. Dan's a great guy to take camping, because
he's got a story (or a corny joke) for every situation. No, literally. Every
situation. |

Josh is working on his
Masters with Prof. Art Snoke. His research focuses on the structural
development of the Great Divide Basin in southwestern We owe our many hours of light-saber
championships and Nalgene bocce to Josh's brilliant creativity (or maybe
his short attention span)! |

Josh is working on his Ph.D. with Profs. Bobbie John and Art Snoke. He studies the growth of continental and oceanic crust. If it weren't for Josh's early-morning swim
in freezing cold water, our canoes would still be floating along without us
