LATEST PROJECT

The critical zone supports the complex interactions involving rocks, soil, water, and air. Knowledge exploring the deep critical zone, has been limited due to access. Recent studies have adopted geophysics to explore the deep critical zone.

Recent studies have integrated different geophysical methods to begin quantifying weathering processes. Methods such as seismic refraction and electrical resistivity need direct samples to inform the final model. Boreholes have traditionally served this purpose, however data from these borehole have not be used to link geophysical methods to understand the chemical weathering process.

​

My current research involves integrating the response of borehole (gamma, EMI, SP, and NMR) and surface geophysics (seismic and ERT) to understand the affect of hydrology on subsurface weathering in an semi-arid alpine region.
