Research Interests<\/h3>\n

My research focuses on the physical processes of magmatism and volcanism with an emphasis on the dynamics of magma transport and eruption and volcanic deposition in submarine volcanic systems. I use a variety of research methods to investigate submarine volcanic processes including: geospatial analysis of field and remote sensing observations from deep-submergence vehicles, geophysical measurements, micro-scale textural analysis of rocks, and geochemistry. Data derived from those sources are analyzed quantitatively and used to constrain numerical models of volcanic and magmatic processes across a range of temporal and spatial scales. My submarine research is built upon a foundation of observational, experimental, and geochemical studies in terrestrial volcanic systems. In subaerial volcanology, I use field studies including near-field remote sensing (ground-based and airborne lidar) to evaluate the dynamics of eruptions and to improve predictive models of lava flow emplacement, which pose significant hazards to humans and infrastructure.<\/p>\n\t
