CREST at Scripps: Chronology of rocks, earthquakes, structure, tectonics at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego
Our group's research integrates mid- to low-temperature geo- and thermochronometry, field geology, petrology, microtextural and microstructural analysis, and geochemical data to gain a process-focused understanding of deformation in the lithosphere. We are mainly focused on (1) understanding the structural and thermal record of deformation and seismicity from active brittle fault zones, exhumed ductile shear zones, and exhumed subduction complexes from microscale to orogen scale, and (2) reconstructing the long term thermal and tectonic histories in extensional and orogenic systems.

December 2024: Check out a new paper led by Dr. Kim Senger on an UNIS course that NOR-R-AM developed focused on Arctic tectonics and volcanism!
September 2024: Crests-SIO went to GSA Connects in Anaheim, CA. Meg talked about her work from Catalina/Pimu Island, Tatiana talked about her work in the Chemehuevi Mountains, CA, and Margo talked about her work in the Lake Mead National Rec area.
July 2024: Margo gave an invited talk at Goldschmidt 2024 in Chicago in the Rates and Dates: Advances in kinetics and applications in noble gas and thermo-geochronologic systems session.
September 2023: We have moved to Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego!
May 2023: Congratulations to Molly Pickerel on completing her MS thesis and a successful defense!
November 2022: Check out our new paper led by Dr. Owen Anfinson on the Andrée Land Basin, Svalbard. Field work in the 24 hour daylight and an international team made for a great time!
