Miscellaneous Projects

GeoRS group worked on several other projects integrating remote sensing and geophysical tools with other datasets. For example, we worked in the Sahara Desert and on the Caspian Sea to assess the role of climate impact versus tectonic influence on the dynamics of water systems. We imaged buried lavas and tarballs and studied diagenetic and rock alteration processes.
