The Jackson School of Geosciences is home to one of the largest and most diverse sedimentology & stratigraphy faculties in the nation. When U.S. News & World Report last ranked sedimentology & ...

Dr. Ananta P. Gajurel is an expert in Himalayan structural geology, sedimentology, geomorphology, geochemistry, geodesy, and geohazards. He draws on over 20 years of experience mentoring and training ...

The project investigates whether major Himalayan lineaments reflect active tectonic structures and how they influence geohazards and segmentation of the Nepal Himalaya. Integrating field observations, ...

We are recruiting motivated students to join an NSF-funded project investigating active fault systems in central Nepal. This is a rare opportunity to work at the intersection of structural geology, ...
