Congratulations to J Schneider who received a StraboMicro grant for their MS research on microstructures within the Pulo do Lobo rocks affected by the Southern Iberian Shear Zone.  

  I had a great time back in the field in Almonaster la Real, Spain with students and my colleague Dr. Manuel Díaz-Azpiroz. We are back to study deformation and fluid interaction in the Pulo do Lobo formation caused by… Read More

George Meyer and Dyanna Czeck presented posters this summer at the Structural Geology and Tectonics forum in Bellingham, Washington. Both posters were about the ongoing project on the Southern Iberian Shear Zone. Dyanna presented an overview of the group’s fieldwork… Read More

In my years teaching at UWM, I’ve had the honor of working with so many great undergraduate research students in Geosciences. Thanks to my students who nominated me and to all who have made it a pleasure to do science… Read More

As the 2023-2024 academic year winds down, I want to give a big congratulations to the four undergraduate students who conducted structural geology research with me this year, Steph Fones, George Meyer, Paige Pimentel, and J Schneider. . They all… Read More

Hello, everyone! I am excited to announce undergraduate student research opportunities in structural geology within our project on strain localization in the Southern Iberian Shear Zone in southwestern Spain. The project is funded by the National Science Foundation and involves… Read More

Three members of our structural geology group presented their research at the Geological Society Connects Annual Meeting in Pittsburgh, PA this fall. Dyanna talked about mentor programs within GO FoRWARD and LET’S GEO. J Schneider presented a poster on their… Read More

Congratulations to all 3 structural geology MS students who graduated in 2022! Now, their theses can all be accessed in electronic form on UWM’s Digital Commons. Kayla Kopinski: Unraveling Deformation Mechanisms and Kinematics in Metasedimentary Rocks Along the Southern Iberian… Read More

Dyanna presented research at the Geological Society of America GSA Connects 2021 meeting in Portland, Oregon this October. Dyanna presented a poster called “Fluid-driven shifts in deformation mechanisms in quartz-rich rocks near a major fault: Willard thrust zone, northern Utah”… Read More
