My
main interests revolve around the evaluation of carbonate depositional
systems through an integrated sequence stratigraphic approach; by combining sedimentologic,
diagenetic, and petrophysical analyses of modern and ancient depositional
systems (outcrop and subsurface) to better constrain the 3-D evolution
of these systems through time. While many of the questions being addressed
are fundamental in nature, results may also be directly applicable to problems
faced within the petroleum and groundwater industries: for example the
lateral and vertical distribution of fluid-bearing strata and impermeable
horizons. In addition, I continue to have interest in evaluating the sedimentologic
and diagenetic responses of carbonate systems to varying frequencies of
sea level change (i.e. icehouse vs. greenhouse periods of Earth’s history).
