Research Interests:
Volcanology, Geology of Hawai'i, Remote sensing of volcanoes
Current Projects:
I am currently teaching various classes, workshops, and leading field trips.
Additionally I am continuing research on various remote-sensing volcanology
projects. These include working with Andy
Harris and Harold
Garbeil (HIGP/SOEST)
on a thermo-rheological lava flow model (FLOWGO), working with the Mars Hand
Lens Imager (MAHLI)
team which will send a close-up camera to Mars in 2012 on the “Curiosity” rover, and mapping
Galapagos volcanoes with Mark Kurz of WHOI.
