Structural Concepts in an Introductory Field Geology Course part of 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum:Abstracts
This webpage is an abstract from the 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum detailing an introductory field geology course at McGill University that introduces structural concepts to first- and second-year students through hands-on fieldwork, emphasizing observation, data recording, teamwork, and engagement to support recruitment and preparation for advanced geology studies.

Insights into earthquake rupture and recovery from paleoseismic faults part of Structural Geology and Tectonics:2016 Structure and Tectonics Forum:Abstracts
A conference abstract page presenting geological research on paleoseismic faults, detailing how fault rock mineralogy, pseudotachylytes, and off-fault damage patterns preserve evidence of ancient earthquake rupture dynamics and interseismic healing, with case studies from Alaska, Japan, South Africa, and Maine to improve understanding of seismic slip processes and rupture geometries.
